Comeback victory boosts Mets' morale in Atlanta
April 9 - A comeback win 10 games into the season isn't a big deal for most teams.
But most teams didn't have a season-opening, nine-game sequence like the one endured by the New York Mets.
The Mets will look to build on their Monday dramatics one night later when they visit the Atlanta Braves in the second contest of a four-game series between the National League East rivals.
Adrian Houser (0-0, 1.80 ERA) is slated to start for New York against Reynaldo Lopez (0-0, 1.50) in a matchup of right-handers.
The Mets overcame an early four-run deficit Monday, and DJ Stewart's two-run, eighth-inning homer gave New York the lead for good in an 8-7 victory.
