- Mahle earned his first win in two starts, allowing one run on four hits with seven strikeouts, while infielder Mauricio Dubon maintains a.266 batting average with 10 home runs and 61 RBI.
- With a 72-48 record, the Braves solidified their standing while the Mets enter at 53-68; rookie Carson Benge extended his on-base streak to 16 games in the loss.
- The Braves host Arizona in a three-game series opener on Friday with LHP Chris Sale, while the Mets begin a six-game homestand against Washington featuring RHP Robert Stock.
