ATLANTA — Pinch-hitter Kelly Johnson lined a leadoff home run in the 11th inning and the New York Mets outlasted the Atlanta Braves 1-0 on Saturday night. Johnson pulled a pitch from Dario Alvarez (1-1) into the first row of the right-field seats for his third homer. Johnson began the year with the Braves before he was traded to the Mets on June 8.
