ATLANTA (CBSNewYork/AP) — Jacob deGrom struck out a season-high 10 in six innings and the New York Mets snapped a five-game skid Monday night with a 7-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves, who sustained a potentially huge blow when ace Mike Soroka was helped off the field with right leg injury.
It was a brutal night physically both teams. Robinson Canó had three RBIs before leaving the game himself — one of three New York infielders who went down with injuries.
Wilson Ramos added a two-run homer for the Mets, who avoided a four-game sweep and ended Atlanta’s five-game winning streak.
