MLB Betting Online - 2010 New York Vs Cincinnati Live Match Details: A lifetime .238 hitter, Barajas joined the Mets - his fifth team - in the offseason after hitting 19 homers for Toronto in 2009. The journeyman has given New York (15-12) some pop of late, hitting five homers in his last nine games. He leads the team with seven home runs overall, six with the bases empty.
His go-ahead solo shot in the ninth broke a 4-all tie Tuesday as the Mets snapped a three-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory. Four of Barajas’ last five homers have either tied the game or given the Mets a lead.
“He’s been impressive in that manner,” New York manager Jerry Manuel said. “He’s had some big hits at some big moments.”
According to CBS, While Barajas is 6 for 16 with four homers in his last five games, David Wright(notes) extended his hitting streak to eight games with a solo shot of his own in the fourth. The third baseman has driven in 10 of his team-high 20 runs in the last seven games.
Neither player has ever gone deep against Reds scheduled starter Johnny Cueto(notes) (1-1, 5.33 ERA), with Barajas 0 for 3 and Wright 2 for 8. Additionally, Cueto is coming off his first win after yielding two runs in five innings of a 3-2 victory over St. Louis on Friday. The right-hander did not resume pitching after a 2-hour, 32-minute rain delay in the middle of the sixth.
