 The Braves swept the Marlins and have now won five straight, holding opponents to three runs or fewer in each game. They had only held one opponent to three runs or fewer in their previous 14 games.

 The Mets have also won five straight games, including a sweep of the Indians in their last series. They are 27-10 since the All-Star break, best in MLB, and sit just 1.5 games out of the last NL wild card spot after sitting 11.5 games out of the playoffs entering the break.

 The Braves are 20-11 against the Mets in New York since 2016, holding them to four runs or fewer in 25 of the 31 games. The Mets' 11-20 record is their second-worst home record against any NL team in that same span (1-8 vs. Dodgers).

 Freddie Freeman tied a career high with his 34th home run of the season against the Marlins on Thursday. He also needs just two runs and six RBI to tie his career high in runs (102) and RBI (109).

 Wilson Ramos is on a 16-game hitting streak, the longest active streak in MLB and the third-longest of his career. The only Mets catcher with a longer hit streak was Mike Piazza in 1999 (24) and 2000 (21).

 Jacob deGrom has a 2.00 ERA in 20 career starts against the Braves, lowest by any pitcher against the Braves since they moved to Atlanta in 1966 (minimum 20 starts). In three starts against the Braves this year, he has given up five home runs after giving up a total of five home runs over his first 17 starts against the Braves.

HP - Cederstrom, 1B - Wolcott, 2B - Hudson, 3B - Johnson

The Atlanta Braves might have figured out the recipe for never losing again. And even if they haven't, Sunday's series finale is nonetheless coming not a moment too soon for the New York Mets.
The Braves will look to complete a three-game sweep of the National League East rivals in New York. Dallas Keuchel (4-5, 4.14 ERA) is scheduled to take the mound for Atlanta against New York's Steven Matz (8-7, 4.18) in a battle of left-handers.

Braves go for sweep against rival Mets

NEW YORK (AP)  Josh Donaldson and Dallas Keuchel were playing T-ball back in the days when Chipper Jones and the Atlanta Braves began tormenting the New York Mets.
They've picked up the tradition pretty quick.
