Baby Braves growing up fast, take 1st in NL East
(MLB.com Atlanta Braves)

Sean Newcomb pitched a gem on Wednesday night at Citi Field, tossing seven brilliant innings and helping the Braves blank the Mets, 7-0. Atlanta now finds itself in first place, a half-game ahead of New York in the National League East. Mets starter Jacob deGrom exited after four innings due to a hyperextended right elbow, and the New York bullpen served up three home runs.
