Mets starter Carlos Carrasco and the bullpen could not hold onto a late lead as New York fell to the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves, 6-4, on Tuesday night.
Here are the takeaways…
-The start of the game was delayed an hour and 40 minutes due to inclement weather that did not show up. Despite that, Carrasco was on his game early Tuesday night. After giving up a solo homer to Ozzie Albies in the second inning, Carrasco would set down the vaunted Braves lineup.
That would change in the sixth inning.
