Atlanta Braves 3 – 14 New York Mets

Post-Game Recap

The New York Mets dismantled the Atlanta Braves tonight, fourteen to three, and it wasn't nearly as close as that score might suggest.

Atlanta actually drew first blood in the opening frame — Ozzie Albies singled home Ronald Acuña Jr. to put the Braves up one. But the Mets answered immediately, Francisco Lindor tripling to tie it, and from that point forward this game had a different feel. Lindor came back in the third and went deep to left center, a three-hundred-sixty-seven footer, and New York had the lead for good.

Atlanta briefly knotted it at three in the fourth on an Albies home run, but that was the last gasp. Marcus Semien went yard in the sixth, and then the seventh inning broke the Braves' back entirely. Leody Taylor launched a three-run shot to left, Bichette added a sacrifice fly, and just like that it was nine to three and this ballgame was over.

New York kept pouring it on in the eighth — a bases-loaded walk, another sac fly, and then Lindor put the bow on it with his second home run of the night, a three-run blast that pushed the final to fourteen.

Francisco Lindor was the story — three for five, two home runs, six runs batted in, and he never struck out once. A.J. Ewing went three for five with two runs scored, and Bo Bichette added three hits of his own.

The Mets didn't just win tonight — they sent a message. That's your post-game report. Sports Desk, signing off.
