Mets 6, Braves 3
How the game was won: After the Braves scored two runs in the fourth inning to tie the score, the Mets scored the go-ahead run on a bases-loaded walk by Sugar Ray Marimon in the fifth and tacked on two more runs against lefty Luis Avilan in the seventh for a 6-3 win. The Mets swept the three-game series and pushed their winning streak to 11 games, matching a franchise record, while the Braves have lost six of eight since their 6-1 start.
Number: 8. Walks issued by Braves pitchers, including five by starter Julio Teheran, who matched a career high. He walked five in the first three innings, the main reason his pitch count rose so quickly that he only lasted 4 1/3 innings.
Next: The Braves open a three-game series Friday night at Philadelphia, with left-hander Alex Wood (1-0, 3.93 ERA) facing former Braves right-hander Aaron Harang (2-1, 1.96) in the series opener.
