Win Makes Atlanta 74-59
Despite a fine performance by catcher Mike Piazza, the New York Mets lost to the Atlanta Braves, 5-2. Piazza was 3 for 4 with 2 home runs. Tom Glavine got credit for the win, improving to 13-9. He allowed 2 runs on 7 hits in 8.2 innings. The third-place Mets dropped to 71-62.

Atlanta took a 3-1 lead on Ronald Acuna Jr.'s 22nd double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Acuna Jr. hit in the top of the eighth, left New York pitcher Tug McGraw shaking his head.

"We're in for a photo finish, I think," said Acuna Jr.. "Time to play our best ball."
