DeGrom lowers ERA to 0.50 as Mets beat Braves 4-2

Jacob deGrom pitched one-hit ball over five scoreless innings as the Mets beat the Atlanta Braves 4-2 Monday in a doubleheader opener. DeGrom (7-2) didn’t allow a hit in the seven-inning game until Mets outfielders misplayed a fifth-inning fly ball into a ground-rule double. Jeff McNeil came off the injured list and singled as a pinch-hitter for deGrom during the fifth, then scored on Dominic Smith’s three-run double. Seth Lugo and Edwin Díaz finished the two-hitter, with Díaz getting his 15th save. Kyle Muller (0-1) pitched one-hit ball over four innings in his first big league start. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
