Overview

  • Brett Baty, starting against a left-handed pitcher despite prior struggles, drove in three runs, including a go-ahead two-run single in the seventh inning.
  • Manager Carlos Mendoza’s lineup adjustments, including starting Baty for his defense and potential offensive spark, paid off in the win.
  • Tylor Megill struck out a career-high 10 batters over 4 2/3 innings, allowing just one run on four hits.
  • Reliever Huascar Brazobán earned the win, escaping a bases-loaded jam in the fifth and pitching 2 1/3 scoreless innings with four strikeouts.
  • The Mets snapped their first three-game losing streak of the season and improved their performance with runners in scoring position, a key area of recent struggle.
