Marlins Erupt for 6 in 5th to Sink Mets
Brett Baty left the game with right-side soreness, a possible oblique injury, affecting the Mets' playoff push as they fell to the Miami Marlins 6-2, officials said.
- On Friday night, Brett Baty, third baseman for the New York Mets, departed after the second inning after appearing to suffer an injury.
- The Mets said Baty is dealing with right side soreness, noting further imaging will likely be required, and Carlos Mendoza called it a right oblique injury on Saturday.
- Entering Friday, Brett Baty was riding a.872 OPS with seven home runs, 16 RBI and 24 runs in 41 games since August, while slashing.254/.313/.435 with 18 homers this season.
- Ronny Mauricio replaced Baty at third base and would likely start the next two games, giving Mauricio a chance to reclaim a larger role if Baty misses time.
- The Mets dropped out of the third NL wild-card spot Friday, Mendoza warned there's fear Baty could be done for the season, though the team hopes he can return this weekend or in the postseason.
