The New York Mets are going through some major struggles this season. They're 10-20 on the year with the worst record in all of Major League Baseball.
Even though Juan Soto just came back from the injured list, Francisco Lindor and now Luis Robert Jr. are out for some time. Things aren't going well for the Mets at all.
And in a cruel twist of fate, Soto should've had a home run if it weren't for James Wood of the Washington Nationals, who's a rare 6-foot-6, and the wind during their most recent game.
