Mets manage one hit in loss to Braves

NEW YORK -- As it turns out, all the Braves needed to silence the Mets' homer-happy offense was a heavy dose of Matt Wisler. Backed by Mallex Smith's first career homer, Wisler held the Mets hitless into the fifth inning Tuesday, and scoreless through eight in a 3-0 win at Citi Field.

Though he allowed just the one hit -- an Asdrubal Cabrera single -- in eight innings, Wisler was not necessarily overwhelming on a foggy night at Citi Field. He worked around two walks, a hit batsman and a Freddie Freeman fielding error, striking out four and inducing a pair of double plays.
