Well, that was fun. Seriously, watch out for the video and highlights post, as that’ll be a doozy. On Tuesday, the Braves edged the Mets 3-2 in the series opener, climbing to within a half-game of the division lead. Last night, they sauntered into first place on the back of a 7-0 shutout. Not to be outdone by their prior performance, they capped the road trip with a thunderous 11-run assault, giving the Mets no quarter as they thwomped them again and again. And again.
Just like Tuesday night, the bats came out and immediately drew blood, putting up a three-spot in the first.
