Profar drives in 2 runs with go-ahead single in 8th as Braves win 4-3 to deny Mets sweep

ATLANTA (AP) — Jurickson Profar drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single with two outs in the eighth inning, sending the Atlanta Braves to a 4-3 win over the New York Mets on Sunday.

The Mets, who led 2-0, were denied their first sweep at Truist Park, which opened in 2017. New York’s last series sweep in Atlanta came at Turner Field in 2016.

Profar’s single gave Atlanta a 4-2 lead. Juan Soto hit an RBI single for New York in the ninth before Raisel Iglesias retired Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil with two runners aboard, earning his 22nd save.
