The Olympic Stadium effect didn’t work well for the Mets, but their first encounter in Cobb County was better as they defeated our Atlanta Braves, 7-5.
The crazy part was seeing Julio Teheran give up six earned runs to the New Yorkers… despite only allowing 6 hits (albeit with 3 walks mixed in).
But what we really don’t wish to see happen is for the Mets to start gaining some sort of confidence again – particularly in this shiny new stadium. That would just work against everything that had been established at Turner Field over the past 20 years.
