Yoenis Cespedes’ only strikeout Wednesday night was with his chain necklace.

The Mets slugger was visibly upset when he got up from sliding into second on a double during the first inning of the Mets’ 7-0 loss to the Braves, as he shook off his necklace and found that diamonds were falling off into the dirt. Once he pulled it off his neck and watched it break apart in his hand, Cespedes frowned and chucked the small, remaining piece he held to the ground.
