Bo Bichette, Juan Soto, and Francisco Lindor all went for the same pop fly, and none of them called it.
The ball dropped right between three of the Mets' most talked-about names, turning a routine out into a double.
One reaction summed up the moment perfectly. "About $1B worth of Mets out in left field, and none of them could pick it up."
That's not an exaggeration given the collective contracts involved between Soto, Lindor, and Bichette.
The clip spread fast, the kind of blooper that becomes shorthand for a team's larger struggles, regardless of how the rest of the game actually went.
For Bichette specifically, the moment carries extra attention given his history in Toronto, where fans still track everything he does in a Mets uniform.
Why these plays stick with fans longer than box scores
Miscommunication on a shallow pop fly is one of baseball's oldest, most avoidable mistakes, three players converging with nobody willing to make the call.
It happens at every level of the sport, but it lands differently when it involves this much combined talent and payroll on one play.
Moments like this tend to outlive the actual game they happened in, becoming a highlight reel clip long after the final score is forgotten.
For Blue Jays fans specifically, watching Bichette in these viral moments has become its own strange subplot since his departure, a mix of nostalgia and schadenfreude depending on how the play goes.
There's no word on whether any of the three players addressed the mix-up directly afterward.
Whether this becomes a passing punchline or a genuine point of self-scouting for a costly outfield trio depends on whether it happens again.
