While the Braves did manage to send Max Scherzer to the clubhouse with four runs on his line, Atlanta’s pitching staff was unable to keep New York quiet for a third night in a row. The Mets scored early and often in this one as they eventually won this game 9-7.
The early story in this game was Jake Odorizzi stumbling out of the gates. By the time Odorizzi had thrown seven pitches in this game, he had already given up more runs than he had outs on the board. Starling Marte and Francisco Lindor hit back-to-back dingers with one out to put the Mets ahead in a hurry.
