Braves News
The Braves completed their road trip on a good note with a 6-3 win over the New York Mets. Austin Riley hit his fourth home run in three games and drove in three of Atlanta’s six runs. Dansby Swanson set a new career-high for homers with his 18th to help put the game out of reach. Atlanta ends the trip with a 5-4 record and closes to within four games of the Mets in the NL East standings.
