Eddie Rosario became the seventh Atlanta batter to hit 20 home runs this season and Bryce Elder earned his 10th win as the Braves defeated the visiting New York Mets 3-2 on Tuesday to even their three-game series.

Rosario hit a towering 415-foot two-run shot in the second inning to give the Braves a lead they never relinquished. Marcell Ozuna added a solo homer in the fifth inning, his 27th home run, to give Atlanta a major-league-leading 239 home runs this season.
