A four-run seventh inning for the New York Mets was enough for them to overcome a three-run fifth inning from the Atlanta Braves. Those ended up being the only runs scored in tonight’s game, as the Mets took the first game of this series by the score of 4-3.
For the first four innings of this one, it was all about Charlie Morton and Tylor Megill trading zeroes in each inning. For Morton, it was a continuation of the same vein of form that he was in over his past few starts and against the Mets, in general.
