Mets infielder Brett Baty continues to build momentum at the plate, extending a hitting streak that reaches eight games in multiple reports. Baty delivers key hits during that stretch, including a two-run single in Wednesday’s win over the Royals that helps power a Mets victory and increases his streak to a career-best eight games. Other coverage attributes the improvement to Baty sticking with a simpler approach at the plate after a difficult June, when he hit .147.
Separately, in a 6-2 Mets loss to the Red Sox, Baty keeps producing even as the team struggles overall. He goes 3-for-4 and hits a solo homer, which extends his hitting streak further to 10 games, according to one outlet. The reports collectively describe Baty’s recent run as his longest of the season, with multiple timely extra-base and run-producing hits occurring across both wins and a loss.
