Braves Hold on to Beat Mets, 8-5

by Nicholas Stix

The Mets were unable to come back against the Braves in this afternoon's game at Atlanta's Turner Field. Still, by virtue of having taken the first two games of the series, the Mets had guaranteed themselves a series victory, thus tying their season record against their mortal enemies, 3-3. Steve Trachsel took the loss, dropping his record to 2-2, and Davies got the win, improving to an identical record.

The Mets had lost their previous series to the Braves this season at home, 2-1. In one week, the Braves return to Shea Stadium for another series.
