Pre-Game: Mets vs. Braves 7:10 PM

The New York Mets will finish up their three game series against the Braves tonight. The Mets have won the first two games in the series. The reason for that has been because of the pitching which has been at its' best. The Mets could possibly head back to New York over .500. The offense has beaten up on the top pitchers in the league and is starting to figure out where they are successful.
R.A. Dickey will start for the Mets as he tries to capture his fourth win of the season. Dickey has been inconsistent, but has been able to give the team innings. And in his last three games Dickey has gone at least seven innings. If the Mets get that effort tonight they could help Dickey get his fourth win of the season.
Mike Minor will start for the Braves as he tries to get his first win of the season. Minor has struggled to start this season. He has a record of 0-2 in four starts this season. His last start was his best start as he went six innings allowing two runs on four hits. He didn't get a decision, but he really put the team in the right position to get the win. Minor will try to keep the Mets offense from exploding as he tries to get his first win.
