1. The New York Mets lose and it will be dramatic. Bartolo Colon was magical, the red-hot Asdrubal Cabrera had homered again, Rene Rivera homered to make it 3-0 and nobody seemed to care or remember that Terry Collins had benched the struggling Jay Bruce. Then the Big Man gave up a two-run home run to Anthony Recker. Yes, that Anthony Recker, the backup catcher who hit .125 for the Mets last season. Then the Braves tied it. There was an error by James Loney and then Collins maybe overthought things, replacing Addison Reed with Josh Smoker to face Freddie Freeman, who singled, and then Jeurys Familia came on for a five-out save, but he allowed a stolen base and a sacrifice fly.
