Brett Baty launches two more homers, Luisangel Acuna remains hot at Triple-A

Syracuse Mets started the second half of the Triple-A season with another win on Wednesday afternoon and, for the second game in a row, the young talent got the mix of things right

Brett Baty has been hot since being sent back to the minor leagues and he continued that in this one as he made another start at second base.

With Syracuse trailing by two, the young slugger stepped to the plate in the top of the sixth and demolished a middle-middle divider 406 feet to right for a solo home run.

Baty was retired in each of his next two at-bats, but stepped on base with the bases empty again in the ninth, and hit a fastball 418 feet to right for his third home run in the last two games.

After finishing his monster 3-for-5 showing, the former first-round pick is now hitting a stellar .354 with four doubles, eight homers, 20 RBI and a 1.188 OPS in 16 games with Syracuse.

He remains without a timetable for a possible return to the big league level, but has certainly made a case for his offensive prowess.

Best prospect Luisangel Acuna was also in the thick of things, as he drove in another run and took two more hits to extend his hitting streak to an impressive 11 games.

As the weather warms up, so does the speedy 22-year-old.

Acuna has recorded four consecutive multi-hit games and is hitting .316 with three doubles, one triple, one home run, 12 RBI, seven stolen bases and a .372 on-base percentage in 20 games during June.

If the young man continues to produce like this, he could end up cracking the big league roster by the end of the second half of the season.
