NEW YORK — Spencer Strider pitched seven scoreless innings and Ozzie Albies homered as the Atlanta Braves beat the New York Mets 6-0 in the nightcap to complete a doubleheader sweep on Saturday.
The Braves routed the Mets 21-3 in the opener when Albies homered and drove in six runs and Nicky Lopez added four hits — including his first homer since Sept. 9, 2021 — and five RBIs before tossing a scoreless ninth inning.
"You've got to keep your mind in the game and keep focused at all times, otherwise, the game can turn on you real quick," Albies said "So that's what we do, keep going hard.
