The New York Mets were able to get their nine-game road trip
off on a positive note Tuesday night, blanking their division rival Atlanta Braves 4-0. It was a
quite game offensively, as both starting pitchers were dealing throughout the
night.
Bartolo Colon dominated
the Braves through his seven innings of work. He allowed only six hits,
striking out five and walking none. Only two Braves even got past first base,
as Freddie Freeman doubled in the first inning and Andrelton Simmons reached
second because of a Ruben Tejada error in the seventh inning. It was an
impressive outing for Colon , who
worked with little help from the Mets offense tonight, but did not waver.
