The Mets jumped out to a 6-0 lead early in the game, in part thanks to Mark Vientos’s grand slam in the second inning. Before the grand slam, the Dodgers had chosen to intentionally walk Francisco Lindor with men on second and third and two outs to face Vientos, but it didn’t exactly work out in their favor.

The New York Mets’ Mark Vientos was well aware of the situation, knowing exactly why the Los Angeles Dodgers walked Francisco Lindor intentionally right in front of him to load the bases.
