This is a network connectivity error, or a yum problem.
Yeah, "Could not resolve host: mirrorlist.centos.org" suggests that
there's no DNS (and no networking at all) inside your VM.
I'm no expert in vmplayer, but have you defined a VM with networking
there?
What is the output of `ifconfig -a` within your VM?
Does a simple `ping 8.8.8.8` work?
