Mets 4, Braves 0: Bartolo Colon threw seven scoreless innings as New York spoiled Atlanta's home opener.

Ruben Tejada had two RBI singles and scored twice and Eric Young Jr. recorded two hits, an RBI and two stolen bases for the Mets, who opened a nine-game road trip in fine fashion. Colon (1-1) scattered six hits and struck out five to pick up his first National League win since 2002 with Montreal.

Aaron Harang (1-1) suffered the loss despite letting up a run and just two hits while striking out nine in six frames. Jason Heyward flew to the warning track in center field with the bases loaded in the ninth to end the game and extend his hitless drought to 22 at-bats.

Tejada walked to begin the third, moved to third base with two outs and scored the game's first run when Harang uncorked a wild pitch. Travis d'Arnaud greeted Braves reliever Gus Schlosser with a bloop double to start the seventh before Tejada's base hit to right made it 2-0.

Young drove in Tejada moments later and Tejada capped the scoring with another RBI base hit in the eighth. Kyle Farnsworth retired the side in order in the bottom half and Jose Valverde escaped the bases-loaded jam in the ninth as New York won for the third time in four games following an 0-3 start.
