Michael Harris II's grand slam caps nine-run fourth as Braves rally to beat Mets 11-6
NEW YORK — Michael Harris II hit a grand slam Wednesday night to cap Atlanta's biggest inning in almost five years — a nine-run outburst in the fourth that propelled the Braves to an 11-6 comeback win over the slumping New York Mets. The Braves fell behind 6-0 in a game delayed 95 minutes by rain before storming back against David Peterson and Reed Garrett (3-5). Peterson issued four free passes in the fourth, including a bases-loaded walk of Nick Allen, and gave up Jurickson Profar's three-run double before Marcell Ozuna greeted Garrett with an RBI single. Three batters later, Harris hit a 417-foot homer to straightaway center. The nine-run inning was the biggest for the Braves since Sept. 9, 2020, when they scored 11 times in the second inning of a 29-9 win over the Miami Marlins. Ozuna hit a two-run homer in the sixth. Aaron Bummer (2-2), the first of five Braves relievers to follow Carlos Carrasco, tossed 2 1/3 scoreless innings. Carrasco gave up six runs in two innings. Pete Alonso had a two-run single and Cedric Mullins lofted a sacrifice fly in the first before Juan Soto hit a 407-foot, two-run homer and Jeff McNeil had an RBI double in the second. Peterson surrendered a season-high six runs over a season-low 3 1/3 innings. The Mets have lost 12 of 14. Key moment Harris' grand slam was his first since last Aug. 14. Key stat The Mets gave up at least nine runs in an inning for the ninth time in franchise history and the first since Apr. 16, 2019, when the Philadelphia Phillies scored 10 runs in the first inning of a 14-3 win. Up next The three-game series concludes Thursday night, when Mets RHP Kodai Senga (7-4, 2.30 ERA) opposes Braves RHP Bryce Elder (4-9, 6.12).

Does Sean Casey think the Reds can make MLB playoffs as National League Wild Card?
On MLB Network's "MLB Central," former Cincinnati Reds fan favorite Sean Casey was among analysts predicting whether teams in the National League and American League currently positioned to make the playoffs will earn the six berths available in each league. Casey said the one team he believes can move into a playoff spot between now and the end of the regular season is the Reds. Cincinnati entered Thursday trailing the New York Mets by one game for the third and final National League Wild Card. "I think the Reds get in. The Reds get in," Casey said. "I actually do (really believe that). In my heart. The starting pitching. Terry Francona. I just believe (they knock out) the Mets. Why (not)? They're one game back."
