The Mets were absolutely embarrassed by the Braves on Saturday, losing 21–3 in the opener of the doubleheader at Citi Field.
The Braves, who boast an MLB-best 74–41 record, outhit the Mets 22–6 in the win. Allan Winans dominated New York on the mound, scattering only four hits and no runs over seven innings in just his second big league start.
After the drubbing, the Mets Twitter account conspicuously opted to omit the final score on social media, as well as any image following the humiliating blowout defeat. The club simply tweeted: “FINAL: Game 1 is over.”
