New York Mets third baseman Brett Baty shared a personal milestone with fans on July 16, 2025, announcing his engagement to longtime girlfriend Anna Sprys. The couple commemorated the occasion with a series of romantic beachside photos taken during a sunset proposal in Cape May, New Jersey. In the images, Baty is seen kneeling on one knee, proposing to Sprys, followed by shots of the pair sharing a kiss, walking hand-in-hand along the shore, and toasting with champagne. The celebration was made even more special when friends and family surprised the couple by joining them at the beach, embracing the newly engaged duo and posing for group photos. Sprys captioned the post with “Forever with my best friend 🤍,” expressing her joy and commitment.
Baty and Sprys have kept their relationship relatively private since rumors of their dating began around 2023. Sprys, originally from Pittsburgh, played collegiate volleyball at Binghamton University, serving as team captain and earning both a bachelor’s degree in accounting and an MBA in marketing. Baty, a Texas native, previously played for the Mets’ Double-A affiliate in Binghamton. The couple’s engagement has garnered widespread attention, with congratulatory messages flooding their social media posts. Notably, Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor’s wife, Katia Lindor, shared a heartfelt message, writing, “Congrats!!! So happy for you guys 🤍.” The official Instagram account for the Syracuse Mets also chimed in, commenting, “SCREAMING! CONGRATULATIONS 🤍.”
Baty, 25, has been a key player for the Mets since making his MLB debut in 2022. This season, he has appeared in 75 games, with a .226 batting average and nine home runs, matching his career high from 2023. With their engagement, Baty will finish the season as a fiancé, marking a significant personal achievement alongside his professional endeavors.
