The Mets began a three-game series in Atlanta against the Braves on Tuesday night. As has been the case recently, their offense struggled until the late innings of the game. This time, however, the team scored enough runs to pull away with a victory, as the Amazins beat the Braves 4-3 to open the series.
While Tylor Megill probably did not end up being the primary story of this game, he was certainly the story coming into it. Following a rough start on Monday, Jerad Eickhoff was designated for assignment prior to the game on Tuesday night.
