Mets' Wilmer Flores: Launches homer in Thursday's victory

Flores went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's win over the Braves.

Analysis:

Starting in place of Lucas Duda at first base, Flores picked an excellent time to get his first hit of the young season. The utility man parked a 2-2 offering from Jaime Garcia in the left-field seats to open up a lead the Mets wouldn't relinquish. Flores isn't expected to be an everyday player, but this performance along with his versatility should give him a decent amount of usage throughout the season.
