Kelly's Revenge: Johnson's Homer Knocks Off Braves in 11, 1-0

Julio Teheran and Jacob deGrom both dazzled amidst a flurry of double plays, but the Mets came out on top thanks to a Kelly Johnson homer in the 11th.

Kelly Johnson was not having a particularly hot 2016 as a Brave, putting up just a 51 wRC+ in 132 PAs before he was dealt to the Mets. However, the New York colors seem to have done him a lot of good, as he had put up a blistering .286/.375/.464 line in 32 PAs as a Met, and the fun for him didn't stop there tonight, as his solo homer to lead off the 11th gave the Mets a 1-0 victory over the Braves.
