En route to losing for the sixth time in their past eight games, the Mets allowed the Braves to extend their lead courtesy of Markakis' sixth-inning leadoff home run against deGrom. Freddie Freeman's RBI double off Antonio Bastardo during a two-run seventh inning highlighted his second four-hit game within the past five days.
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
