Mets Snap Three-Game Losing Streak with 5-1 Win Over Red Sox Led by Baty

Brett Baty led the New York Mets to a 5-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, driving in three runs and breaking a slump with timely hitting, including a two-RBI single in the seventh inning. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza credited Baty's improved preparation and clubhouse demeanor as key to his recent offensive surge, which has seen him drive in 10 runs over his last 12 games. Despite the Mets’ overall offensive struggles, Baty's performance stood out as he went 2-for-3 with runners in scoring position, helping the team snap a three-game losing streak and avoid a series sweep. On the mound, Tylor Megill delivered a strong outing with 10 strikeouts in 4.2 innings before the bullpen, led by Huascar Brazobán, closed out the game with scoreless relief. The Mets also received contributions from Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor, the latter hitting a crucial home run to end a prolonged team drought without a longball. Mendoza’s lineup adjustments, moving Soto and Alonso down in the order, aimed to spark the offense, but it was Baty who ultimately provided the breakthrough the Mets needed.
