NEW YORK — Brett Baty struggled in the early part of the season. So much so that when the Mets needed to send a player down to make room for second baseman Jeff McNeil, who was being activated off the IL on April 24, Baty got the call.

Brett Baty belted two home runs and drove in a career-high five runs to sustain his recent run of offensive success on Saturday against the CUbs.

Brett Baty is back with the Mets after Jesse Winker's trip to the injured list, which opens up some interesting possibilities to get him playing time.
