With Jesse Winker on the injured list with an oblique strain, the Mets have been able to keep both Vientos and Baty in the lineup. When Baty has started at third base, Vientos has been stationed as the designated hitter. They used Baty at second base in one recent start in which Vientos was at third.

Soto, who whose long double hit the top of the wall in right center field and narrowly missed being a grand slam, brought home Brett Baty and Francisco Lindor, but it wasn’t a bases-clearing hit as Starling Marte was thrown out at the plate to end the inning. Nevertheless, Soto’s hit was still a big one that gave the Mets a 4-2 lead.

New York Mets pitcher Frankie Montas allowed two runs, two hits and two walks over 1 1/3 innings for Class A Brooklyn in his first minor league injury rehabilitation assignment in his recovery from a strained right lat.

The Syracuse Mets played a doubleheader on Saturday, and pitching prospects Blade Tidwell and Dom Hamel had strong outings for the Mets' Triple-A affiliate.

As part of the $765 million deal he signed with the New York Mets last December, Juan Soto got to wear his preferred No. 22, which was worn the previous three seasons by Brett Baty.

Mets outfielders Tyrone Taylor and Juan Soto nearly collided when attempting to catch a fly ball in right center hit by Mookie Betts, and the ball grazed both of their gloves before Taylor wound up making the play with his bare hand.
