He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Luis Palacios picked up the win in relief. Angel Zerpa took the loss for Atlanta. The last-place Mets are 51-59.

New York grabbed control in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, Fernando Tatis Jr. delivered a run-scoring single, to make it 6-5, in favor of the Mets.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," Tatis Jr. told the New York Gazette.
