ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK -- Jose Reyes and Kaz Matsui each had run-scoring hits in another seventh-inning comeback and the New York Mets beat Atlanta 6-5 Saturday, putting the Braves nine games out in the NL East for the first time since Aug. 11, 1993.
It was the fourth straight win for the Mets and fourth straight loss for the Braves, winners of 14 consecutive division titles.
The Mets, who wiped out a four-run Atlanta lead with a seventh-inning rally Friday night, were trailing 3-2 after Adam LaRoche homered for Atlanta in the top of the seventh.
Xavier Nady opened the bottom half with a single against Tim Hudson (2-3) and after Ramon Castro struck out, pinch-hitter Jose Valentin also singled. Reyes, who had five hits Friday night and went 3-for-5 Saturday, delivered an RBI single to tie it. Reyes took second when the throw to third got away from Chipper Jones.
Beltran homers again
Matsui followed with a two-run double into right field. Carlos Beltran, who homered for the second straight day, was walked intentionally and then walks to David Wright and Cliff Floyd forced in another run.
LaRoche's fifth home run of the season gave Atlanta the lead in the top of the seventh. He connected against reliever Bartolome Fortunato (1-0), who was recalled from the minors earlier in the day.
Jorge Julio gave up a one-out RBI single to pinch-hitter Matt Diaz in the ninth before retiring the last two hitters for his first save.
