He was lifted from the Mets loss to the Rays on Sunday in the seventh inning after feeling tightness in his right groin.

NEW YORK — Mets infielder Brett Baty exited Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays. In the moment, with the Mets trailing 6-0, it looked like Mets manager Carlos Mendoza was trying to spark something, pinch-hitting Ronny Mauricio in Baty’s place.

Griffin Canning gave up a season-worst six earned runs and the Mets offense was quiet as they were swept for the first time in a 9-0 loss to the Rays.

The Mets are walking a fine line, trying to keep an eye on long-term health while still piling up wins in the here and now.

The New York Mets head into 10 straight games against NL East rival Atlanta and Philadelphia after getting swept in a series for the first time this season.

The Mets’ offense didn’t help their pitchers much either. Despite having traffic on the bases in all but one inning, they failed to score a run. In the end, they left 12 runners stranded and went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position.

NEW YORK — Shane Baz had lots of reasons to smile after Sunday’s outing in which he used his high-octane fastball and a good mix of his curve, changeup and reworked slider/cutter to hold the Mets to three hits while working into the seventh inning.

Shane Baz combined with three relievers on a five-hitter, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat New York 9-0 to complete the first three-game series sweep of the Mets this season
