Nick Evans exploded with a 5-for-5 performance Wednesday for Triple-A Buffalo, extending his hitting streak to 19 games.
Evans is batting a mind-blowing 38-for-74 (.513) during the streak, and is now hitting .328 in the minors this season. The versatile 25-year-old fared poorly in an earlier call-up, but remains a candidate for another promotion later this season, particularly if the Mets end up trading one or more of their current starters.
