Atlanta third baseman Austin Riley left the Braves' game Sunday night against the New York Mets because of tightness on his left side. Riley was replaced by Zack Short in the bottom of the fourth inning. Braves manager Brian Snitker said Riley felt a little discomfort during batting practice, but didn't tell anyone on the staff.
The Atlanta Braves dropped a close battle with the New York Mets, 4-3, to miss out on a sweep of the road series in Citi Field. Atlanta's designated hitter went two for three in this one, twice singling back up the middle and driving in a runner from 2nd base. The two RBIs brought Ozuna's league-leading total to 40 - seven more than the next closest hitter, Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernández, who put up his 33 in five more games than Ozuna. More notably, Ozuna's 40 RBIs in his 37 games stand as the fastest Braves player to reach 40 RBIs in a season since Henry Aaron in 1970, who did it in 34 games.
Mets rookie Christian Scott gave up his first home run and three earned runs but grabbed a quality start in his Citi Field debut on Saturday.
