David Peterson Dominates Early, Stumbles in Sixth During Mets' Loss to Braves

Mets lefty David Peterson appeared to be in strong form on Sunday, delivering five shutout innings against the Braves after a couple of recent rough starts. However, his outing unraveled in the sixth inning when he issued two walks, leading to Sean Murphy's two-run single that tied the game and ended Peterson's afternoon. The left-hander finished having allowed two earned runs on five hits, striking out eight and walking four over 5.2 innings, as the Mets ultimately fell 4-3 to the Braves and missed a chance for a series sweep.
