A. Simmons snaps multi-hit streak
NEW YORK — Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons went 0-for-4 with a walk in Tuesday's loss to the Mets to snap his string of six consecutive two-hit games.
He was the first Brave to have as many as six consecutive multi-hit games this season. In 2013, Jason Heyward had a six-game streak and Chris Johnson had seven consecutive multi-hit games.
Simmons was 12-for-25 (.480) with two doubles during the streak, raising his average from .251 to .266. He matched a career high with four RBIs in Saturday’s 10-4 win against Arizona.
