The New York Mets rallied from a late deficit to defeat the Atlanta Braves 7-6 in 10 innings on Monday, securing a split in their four-game series at Truist Park.

Luis Torrens drove in the game-winning run with a double in the 10th inning.

Juan Soto earlier hit a crucial three-run home run in the ninth inning to fuel the comeback.

Extra-Inning Thriller

The matchup marked the 14th extra-inning appearance for New York this season. It was also their second victory when trailing after eight innings.

Mets starting pitcher Freddy Peralta struggled early, needing 22 pitches to escape the first inning. He threw 103 pitches over 4.2 innings while allowing multiple runs.

The Braves bullpen faltered late, surrendering a multi-run advantage. Atlanta's offense scored 29 total runs and hit 11 home runs over the four games.

Following the series, the Braves placed starting pitcher Martín Pérez on the 15-day injured list due to a left forearm contusion sustained during his Sunday start.
