Sports | MLB Maine, Mets Hold On for Win Over Braves Beltran's two-run double sparks four-run third inning By Mitch Pritchard Posted Apr 26, 2008 4:52 PM CDT Copied New York Mets' John Maine delivers a pitch to the Atlanta Braves during the second inning of their baseball game at Shea Stadium in New York, Saturday, April 26, 2008. (AP Photo/Ed Betz) Carlos Beltran hit a two-run double in the Mets' four-run third inning, and New York held on for a 4-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves today. John Maine pitched five effective innings and David Wright snapped out of a slump with two hits for the Mets. Atlanta dropped to 0-8 in one-run games and is the only team in the majors without a win in that situation. The Braves played without Chipper Jones, who was a late scratch after feeling spasms in the middle of his back in the clubhouse before the game. Jones was leading the majors with a .433 batting average entering play today. Martin Prado replaced Jones at third base and two hits and made a defensive play that possibly prevented a run. Billy Wagner worked the ninth for his fifth save. Read These Next Trump has threatened to revoke Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship. FEMA failed to answer thousands of calls after the Texas floods.
