METS: The Braves and Mets meet for the fifth time this season and for the second time at Citi Field...The Mets swept the first meeting, 4/22-4/24, outscoring the Braves, 17-7 and then won yesterday s series opener, 4-1...The Braves have lost nine of the last 11 games with the Mets. Dating to the beginning of last season, the Braves have lost seven of 10 meetings here. From 2009-2013, the Braves went 27-18 (.600) in Flushing, while hitting better than a home run per game (47 home runs/45 games). ROUGH START: After starting the season 0-9 for the first time since the 1988 campaign (when they opened 0-10), the Braves won four straight games before losing 10 of their last 12...The 6-19 start matches the 1988 team for the worst record through 25 games in franchise history since at least 1900. The Braves 18 losses last month set the franchise record for most April defeats (since 1900). ROSTER MOVES: The Braves made seven roster moves yesterday, recalling Mike Foltynewicz (No. 26) from Gwinnett (AAA), while selecting the contracts of INF/OF Chase d Arnaud (No. 23), OF Matt Tuiasosopo (No. 30) and INF Reid Brignac (No. 4) from the G-Braves...They also optioned RHP John Gant and INF/OF Jace Peterson to Triple-A while designating OF Drew Stubbs for assignment. GRAND SLAMS: The Braves surrendered their fourth grand slam of the season Friday when Matt Szczur took Chris Withrow out to left-center field in the eighth. The Braves have allowed an MLB-high four of the 17 grand slams in baseball this season, after being the only team in 2015 to not give one up. HOME RUNS: Atlanta s five home runs so far are the fewest for the club through the first 25 games of a season since the 1931 team had four. RISP: The Braves are hitting.289 (56-for-194) with runners in scoring position this season, the fifth-best mark in the Majors and the third-best in the National League...Only BAL (.317), TEX (.302), StL (.300) and MIL (.291) are above them. Opponents are hitting.291 (65-for-223) with runners in scoring position against the Braves, the second-highest mark in baseball...only Colorado (.302) allows a higher average. HITS: The Braves out hit the Mets, 9-8, last night but lost, 4-1...The Braves are 3-5 when finishing with more hits than their opponent, the only team in baseball with a losing record in such games...the five losses are also a MLB high for these games. DOUBLE TROUBLE: OF Nick Markakis has collected a NL high-tying 11 doubles so far...he tied for fifth in the NL with 38 doubles last season. Markakis tied Hank Aaron and Marcus Giles for the most doubles by the end of April in Atlanta franchise history...aaron first set the record in 1969, before Giles matched the mark in 2003. GETTIN ON: OF Nick Markakis singled in the first yesterday, his fifth hit in 14 at-bats leading off the game for Atlanta this season...since 1974, he has the highest-career average (.356, 104-for-292) in game-opening plate appearances (min. 200 PA) among all players. Markakis has reached base safely via hit or walk in 23 of his 24 starts this season...he moved to the leadoff spot in the batting order on 4/15 and has gone 17-for-59 (.288) with a.403 OBP, 10 walks and 12 RBI in that spot.

GO-AHEAD: OF Nick Markakis drove in the goahead run with a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning Sunday giving him a MLB high-tying eight go-ahead RBI. He owns 20 of the Braves 79 RBI on the season and ranks T8th in the NL. JULIO TEHERAN: Tossed 7.0 shutout innings at Wrigley Field yesterday, leaving with a 3-0 lead but receiving a no-decision...teheran is winless this season, despite allowing two runs or less in four of his six starts Since the start of last season, Teheran has left a MLB-most nine games with a lead and failed to receive a win...from 2011-2014, Teheran had four such games. ERICK AYBAR: Hitting.304 (7-for-23) with three runs scored over his last six games., with multiple hits in three of those contests...began the year hitting.134 (9-for-67) with four runs in 18 games. HUNTER CERVENKA: Retired Jason Heyward, the only batter he faced on May 1, on a groundout to second base and has compiled 11 consecutive scoreless outings since making his MLB debut on April 12. His run is the longest scoreless outing streak to begin a career in Atlanta franchise history...mike Stanton held the old mark with eight straight in 1989.
