Braves On Other Side Of Saturday's Score, Lose To Mets

Jair Jurrjens allowed one run in 4 2/3 innings and Johan Santana allowed one run in five innings for the Mets, but New York pounced on Atlanta's pen to win by a 12-1 score.

The Braves' only run came on Matt Diaz's solo home run on the fifth. That gave the Braves a brief 1-0 lead. However, the Mets scored 12 unanswered runs. The Braves only mustered three other hits. Eric O'Flaherty allowed nine runs in just 2/3 innings, which sent his ERA skyrocketing up to 14.21 for the spring. The big blow was Omar Santos's three-run shot. Jeremy Reed went 4-5 with two doubles, scored two runs and drove in four for the Mets. Three other Mets had two hits and Fernando Tatis (one of those three) drove in three runs.

The Braves have the day off tomorrow.

W - Johan Santana (1-1)
L - Boone Logan (0-1)
HR - ATL - Matt Diaz (2)
NYM - Omar Santos (1)
