Braves Take Tight Tilt, 3-2
Atlanta Braves starter Robert Stephenson was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the New York Mets, 3-2. Atlanta is 58-74 and New York, with the loss, 77-52.

The result might have been different for Atlanta, had it not been for Ian Desmond. The first baseman produced a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Braves ahead, 3-1. For the game, Desmond had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Enjoyed this one," Desmond told the Atlanta Times. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
