Mets fall to Braves in a blowout to open series
Photo by Kevin C. Cox/ The game featured a rain delay and a potentially significant injury. The Mets gave up thirteen runs to the Braves and unsurprisingly lost as a result. Carlos Carrasco gave up three runs in two innings of work, and after the game was interrupted by a rain delay, the Mets sent him back out there only to see him leave the game early with what the team described as left side tightness. With Carrasco out early, the Mets turned to their lesser relievers and got lesser results. Joely Rodríguez, Adonis Medina, and Mychal Givens combined to surrender ten...

Mets 6, Reds 2 — The joys of a balanced offense
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Carlos Carrasco was excellent, and three Mets drove in all six runs to continue the win streak. Francisco Lindor, Jeff McNeil, and new friend Darin Ruf provided all of the offense in this one, as the trio drove in two runs apiece in the 6-2 win. Lindor provided his runs by way of a two run home run, his 20th of the season, smoking a 2-2 Mike Minor change up over the left field fence. Jeff McNeil decided the next two RBI were his, one coming by way of a solo home run (his first against a lefty this season, with Minor being the victim) in the...
