Mets Morning News: Stayin’ Alive

The Mets bounced back from Friday night’s massacre to the tune of a 7-2 victory over the Braves. David Peterson pitched brilliantly, striking out a career-high ten batters and giving up just three hits and one run on an Adam Duvall solo homer over six innings of work. The Mets took the lead early with a two-run first inning. With a 3-1 lead in the seventh, Miguel Castro loaded the bases and Freddie Freeman was striding to the plate; it seemed like another one of those games.
