Mark Vientos had a week’s worth of adventures at third base in the first six innings of the Mets' 2-1 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night at Citi Field. With the Mets having several players able to play multiple positions, there are many combinations for Carlos Mendoza to choose from. On a rainy night with Kodai Senga on the mound, the skipper opted to have Brett Baty at second base and Jeff McNeil as the DH with Luisangel Acuña available off the bench.

1 / 2Playing for a team and a city where the first grand ballpark was built on the back of a player who ended up being more myth than man, where the great ghosts of the past physically loitered beyond the center field wall, the belief that if anybody could measure up to what it meant to be the next Yankee great, Aaron Judge looked the part.
