Gary Cohen, Ron Darling react to Mets' 'comedy of errors' on little league homer

Key Points:

• The New York Mets, after recently firing manager Carlos Mendoza, continued to struggle with defensive mistakes during their game against the Toronto Blue Jays, highlighted by a costly error on the first batter faced.
• Toronto’s George Springer hit a looping line drive that Mets left fielder Juan Soto misplayed, allowing the ball to go under his glove and eventually leading to a run after rookie center fielder A.J. Ewing fumbled while trying to recover it.
• The play was scored as a triple and an error on Ewing, a generous call that effectively resulted in a home run for Springer, contributing to the Mets' 2-1 loss.
• Despite Juan Soto's strong offensive performance (.975 OPS, second in MLB), his defensive shortcomings in the outfield remain a concern, especially given his massive 15-year, $765 million contract.
• The Mets' record fell to 35-50, ranking just above the Colorado Rockies, reflecting ongoing struggles despite having the second-highest payroll in Major League Baseball.
