Mets center fielder Johneshwy Fargas hit a home run in the top of the eighth inning on Thursday against the Cardinals to tie the game at 7-7. It also finished off the cycle for the speedster.
Fargas hit an RBI triple in the second inning, doubled in the fourth, and singled in the sixth inning. He went 4-for-4 with two RBIs, two runs scored, and stole his third base of the spring.
Fargas, 25, was signed to a minor league deal with an invitation to big league camp back in January. The right-handed hitter slashed .249/.325/.334 with 10 doubles, five triples, and five home runs in 127 Double-A games for the San Francisco Giants last season.
The former 11th round pick led the Eastern League with 50 stolen bases in 2019, he had a league high 23 times caught stealing as well.
