Juan Soto, the Mets star, received backlash from The New York Post for his perceived lack of effort in recent games, particularly during the Subway Series against the Yankees. In a key moment, Soto didn't sprint out of the batter's box after hitting a weak grounder, and during a game at Fenway Park, he missed a chance for a double by not running hard on a long hit. Following the games, he defended his performance despite public criticism, asserting he has been hustling hard.
Soto grounded out softly to the second baseman during a crucial game, seemingly not running hard enough to potentially beat the throw to first base.
After hitting a ball deep into Fenway's left field, Soto didn't immediately sprint, which limited him to a single instead of possibly securing a double.
