Mets third baseman David Wright made his Grapefruit League debut Friday night, going 2-for-3 while playing five innings in the field.
He lined a single to right field in his first at-bat and singled to left field in his second at-bat. After singling in his second at-bat, Wright scored from first base on Yoenis Cespedes‘ double. Wright grounded out to shortstop in his third at-bat.
At third base, Wright handled the only ball hit to him — a grounder — flawlessly.
Wright played in a few minor league games earlier this week and has been taking batting practice for most of Spring Training, but he’s taken things deliberately slow in order to manage his spinal stenosis.
