Mets’ Vientos Injures Hamstring in Tenth Inning Against Dodgers

NEW YORK, NY – Mets player Mark Vientos sustained a potential right hamstring injury during the 10th inning of Monday’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The injury occurred while Vientos was running to first base on a groundout.

Witnesses reported that Vientos did not make it far out of the batter’s box before he was seen clutching his right hamstring. He walked gingerly to the dugout, raising concerns among fans and teammates.

As the designated hitter for the Mets, Vientos did not need to play in the field during the bottom half of the inning. However, it became apparent that the team would have substituted him if the game had continued past the 10th frame.

According to Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News, further testing is expected to determine the extent of Vientos’ injury. The Mets are hopeful for a quick recovery, but the team will monitor his condition closely.

The Mets faced a tough battle against the Dodgers, and Vientos’ potential absence could impact the team’s lineup moving forward.
