Mets look sharp in sweep of Braves
Game 1
The Mets, after dropping the first game to the Braves last night, came into the double header with David Peterson taking the hill. The Mets’ lineup featured an unusual assortment of players, including leadoff hitter Travis Jankowski, giving some regulars the afternoon off. The B (team) Mets gave him a lead in the bottom of the first against veteran Charlie Morton, when back to back RBI singles from Pete Alonso and Eduardo Escobar put the Mets up 2-0. Peterson gave up one run in the top of the second inning, but Peterson had men on second and third with one out and managed to give up just one run on a sacrifice fly by Travis Demeritte.
