Mets’ third baseman David Wright made an important step in his rehab assignment Friday night.

The 35-year-old played all nine innings at third base for Single-A St. Lucie, and went 1-for-4 at the dish.

In his last four games, Wright is 4-for-14.

With the minor league season winding down, it’s important to see Wright be able to handle a full game workload as he eyes a September return to the bigs.

The seven-time all-star hasn’t appeared in a game since 2016. He is signed through the 2020 season.
