Atlanta Braves Crushed 10-3 by Mets In Final Meeting at Turner Field

After an extra inning win Saturday night the Atlanta Braves were crushed by Mets In their final meeting ever at Turner Field.

Fifteen years after the 9/11 attack the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets got together for their final meeting at Turner Field.

The moving pregame ceremony was the highlight of the day for Braves fans as Mets hitters feasted on awful Braves pitching.

Trouble Early and Often

The Mets onslaught started quietly with a one out triple by Asdrubal Cabrera off the glove on Nick Markakis. Yoenis Cespedes drove Cabrera in with an infield out and Braves starter Perez got out of the inning without further damage.

In the home half Ender Inciarte got the Braves first hit but was out trying to steal as Adonis Garcia struck out.

Lugo walked Freddie Freeman extending his on base streak but he was stranded there when the inning ended.

The second passed without incident but the third was a disaster for the Braves. As usual this year it started with a walk, this time a one out pass to the Mets pitcher Seth Lugo.

Jose Reyes and Cabrera followed with single to load the bases for Cespedes who hit Perez’ third pitch deep into the left field seats to put the Mets up 5-0

Perez retired Curtis Granderson for the second out but left the game with an injury. Joel De La Cruz entered and quickly got the final out of the inning. His day went downhill after that.
