After a rough weekend in Atlanta, the Mets traveled home for their final series of the regular season. There was faint hope that New York could still win the National League East, but those dreams officially died on Tuesday.
While the Mets swept a doubleheader from the Nationals, the Braves beat the Miami Marlins 2-1 to officially win their fifth straight division title. But still, it was a notable night for the Amazins, who reached 100 wins for just the fourth time in franchise history. It’s the first time the Mets have reached that benchmark since 1988.
