Baty heard boos from Mets fans earlier this spring as he continued to perform like a "Quadruple-A" player -- one capable of flashing plenty of promise in Triple-A but then can't match those performances at the highest level.

Carlos Mendoza explains Brett Baty’s impressive turnaround since his return to the Mets lineup after New York took down the Pirates Tuesday.

Brett Baty hit a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning and the Mets held off the Pirates 2-1 on Tuesday night.

The Mets won yesterday’s matchup, 2-1, off a Brett Baty homer in the 7th inning. New York won both meetings with Pittsburgh by one run (4-3 and 2-1). The Pirates are 2-3 in the last five games, but 2-10 over the previous 12 compared to the 3-0 run the Mets are on and 5-1 in the past six games.

With their recent resurgence on offense this season, Mark Vientos and Brett Baty received some high praise from another New York Mets third baseman. Former Mets third baseman and team captain David Wright was at Citi Field on Tuesday and met with reporters before New York's second game of a three-game set against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Brett Baty is day to day as far as playing time is concerned. But Mets manager Carlos Mendoza appears to be warming up to the infielder. Before Saturday’s game against the Cubs, Mendoza talked about Baty’s athleticism.
