Mets and Braves Series Postponed by Hurricane

The final two games of the crucial series between the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets were postponed due to heavy rain from Hurricane Helene and will be made up as a doubleheader on Monday. The Mets (87-70) are currently tied with the Arizona Diamondbacks for the second NL wild-card spot, with the Braves just one game behind. The Mets need to win at least four of their remaining games to secure a playoff spot. Rookie Spencer Schwellenbach excelled in the first game, holding the Mets to one run over seven innings, while Michael Harris II contributed significantly with three hits and two RBIs. The Milwaukee Brewers have already clinched the NL Central and are preparing strategically for the playoffs. The upcoming games this weekend will be decisive in finalizing the playoff brackets.
