Francisco Lindor belted a solo homer in the New York Mets' matinee showdown with the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday, reaching 25 home runs and 25 stolen bases for the third time in his career.
By giving the New York Mets an early lead over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday, Francisco Lindor made history.
Lindor is now batting .266 with 25 home runs, 25 stolen bases, 73 RBI and an .816 OPS in 2024. He entered Wednesday with an NL-best 6.0 WAR. There have now been 18 players overall who have posted three or more 25-25 campaigns. Of that group, 14 have been outfielders, two have been third basemen, one has been a second baseman and one has been a shortstop.
While Lindor hasn't been named an All-Star since getting traded by the Cleveland Guardians in 2021, he has remained one of the league's best shortstops in New York. He placed ninth in NL MVP voting in both 2022 and 2023, winning a Silver Slugger in 2023, and he has appeared in 488 of the Mets' 491 games since Aug. 24, 2021.
