Mazeika graduated from Salisbury High School in Connecticut in 2012 and helped lead the Knights to the Western New England Prep Baseball League Championship in 2012. Salisbury went 33-0 during his senior campaign.

In 2015, Mazeika led the Appalachian League in doubles and on-base percentage, ranked second in batting, RBI, hits and extra-base hits. He was also ranked third in slugging percentage and fourth in total bases. He hit .354 with 80 hits including 27 doubles in 226 at-bats.

The 2015 eighth-round pick batted .305 in 70 games with Class A Columbia in 2016. However, with St. Lucie in 2017, he hit .287/.389/.406 with 21 doubles while spending 76 games behind the plate, 12 at first base and 12 as a designated hitter. In 100 games, he hit 7 homeruns, 21 doubles and 50 RBI’s to finish the season with a .406 slugging percentage.

On May 7, 2021, in only his second at bat in the big leagues, Mazeika was the hero in the bottom of the 10th inning during a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. With the bases loaded, he hit into a fielder’s choice, bringing Pete Alonso from third base home. It was his first walk-off RBI, as well as his first RBI in the MLB. The Mets won the game 5–4, their biggest come-from-behind win of the season.

Then on May 11, during an interleague game against the Baltimore Orioles, Mazeika, in his fourth Major League plate appearance, was the hero again. He had another walk-off fielder’s choice ground ball in the bottom of the 9th inning that drove Jonathan Villar in to score, allowing the Mets to prevail 3–2. He is the first player since RBI became official in 1920 with multiple walk-off RBI within his first four career games. Although chronologically his first hit came on May 16, 2021, when he hit a solo home run against the Tampa Bay Rays, he is actually credited with a Double on April 11, 2021 during a game against the Marlins that was resumed on August 31, 2021.
