Dale Murphy's three-run homer in the first inning triggered the Braves' 5-2 victory over the Mets. Murphy's blast came off Randy Jones, making his first start since the end of the strike. Atlanta added a run in the second on an RBI single by Jerry Royster and another in the eighth on Rafael Ramirez' sacrifice fly.
