It hasn't even been two days since Yoenis Cespedes said he'd rather switch back to left field because he feels "more comfortable" there.
In fact, the night after he made the announcement, he got his wish, as the New York Mets stuck fresh call-up Michael Conforto in center field, and slotted Cespedes to his natural left field position.
After gunning down Willson Contreras at the plate with a laser in a classic Cespedes moment, he provided MLB fans with yet another Cespedes moment shortly after.
This time, he gave back the run he prevented earlier in the game.
