Braves Strike Early, Then Hold Off Mets to Hand New York 9th Loss in Last 10
- On Monday night at Citi Field, the Atlanta Braves secured a 3-2 victory over the New York Mets in the first game of their four-game set.
- The Mets have struggled recently, dropping nine of their previous ten contests, a result their manager Carlos Mendoza attributed to ineffective starting pitching and difficulties producing runs in the lower part of the batting order.

- The Braves extended their undefeated streak to four games over the Mets this season, earning their fourth consecutive divisional victory despite the Mets' only run coming from Soto’s 17th home run.
