Who are all these Braves-branded fans at Citi Field?

Decent outing for Severino.
2 BBs plus 7 hits but several of those were soft.

Mets could use a couple of soft hits.

Butto is matching Sale, punch for punch.

I don't know who is impressing me more — him or Darling, who keeps predicting what his next pitch will be.

Boy, Butto has been a real find in the bullpen.

Now, just score a run, boys.

Sale has retired 11 in a row, so of course he gets pulled.

Thank you, universe.

9 - 1 - 2 to win it.
I don't think the Braves go to a LHP cuz Mets would just ph for DJ and he'd have to stay in and face a righty-swinging Lindor

Why is Nimmo not pinch hitting here?

I also would leave Diaz in for a second inning.

I was tempted to try that also.

Instead he passes the baton to Maton.

Not sure what Alvarez is upset about ... but I'll take the out.

What's more suicidal — breaking for the plate on bunt, or making hard contact with Álvarez?

The Braves running into all these outs, and I guess we just don't appreciate how frustrated Brian Snitker has been with his bats.

Actually putting a ball in play would enhance the odds of scoring the free runner.

Well, three bad plays by the Braves in the last two innings gift-wrapped this one for the Metsies, but I'll take it.

I like that Butto went 3 innings in relief and threw 40 pitches tonight. I have a bad feeling they will need him stretched out to make some starts before this season is over, but a good feeling about how he'll handle it
