As Mets emphasize run prevention, growing pains at the corners surface vs. Diamondbacks

NEW YORK — Brett Baty read the ball well. He tracked its flight while quickly going back to the outfield wall. Instead of making the catch, however, the ball sailed over his head.It was a good effort for someone new to right field in the major leagues.“That was the first one I’ve gotten near the wall,” Baty said. “Still working hard to get some experience with the wall balls and stuff. I think they are extremely hard, but I am going to do everything I can to go catch those — run through the wall if I have to.”Advertisement
