Atlanta pitcher Jake Peavy gave the Mets all they could handle, but in the end, New York left Turner Field 1997-2016 with a win, 2-1. Peavy allowed 2 runs on 4 hits over 6.2 innings. New York occupies last place in the NL East Division at 54-86.

David Wright, who finished 4th in the AL in on-base percentage with .390 in 2012, had a direct impact on the outcome. Wright contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put New York up, 2-1.

Afterward, Mets manager Ethan Smith was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
