If there was any question about
the Atlanta Braves’ ability it was
answered this weekend when the
Braves took a 2-3 game series win
over the New York Mets.
In the first game the Braves
swept the board 7-3. In the sec
ond game the Mets swept the
Braves 7-2. In the final game, the
Atlanta Braves got the win 9-6.
The last game was the toughest
for both teams, because it was ba
sically a rally between the two.
The games were played on April
20th, 2P, and22”‘‘. Although it is
very early in the season these were
important games for the leader in
their division.
