Pinch-hitter Rio Ruiz had the first game-ending hit of his career Friday night, scoring another rookie for the Atlanta Braves' third walk-off victory of the season.
OUR PREDICTION: Despite losing last night, the Mets are still 13-5 in their last 18 games in Atlanta and with Newcomb making his major league debut, this is a good spot to jump on NY at a low price.
Cespedes' hamstring first flared up on April 20 but he attempted to play through the injury.
Closer Addison Reed got his 11th save in 13 chances. Cespedes will not start the second game Saturday but could be available to pinch-hit. He has won back-to-back starts, and he improved to 3-2 with a 4.25 ERA across nine appearances (seven starts) at Citi Field this season. He gave up one run and six hits, striking out seven and walking two.

Swanson, who had smashed a two-run double in the sixth inning, used his speed, instincts and aggressiveness to do in the Mets in the ninth as center fielder Curtis Granderson, who doesn't have a strong arm, was slow getting to the ball. Mets SS Asdrubal Cabrera committed two errors in the first game, giving him 10 for the season.
INF Matt Reynolds, Rivera and RHP Tyler Pill have been optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas to make room for Matz, Cespedes and RHP Seth Lugo on the roster.
Manager Terry Collins will wait to see how Cespedes adjusts before mapping out a plan for how much he will play over the next week. "I don't know that I can run 100 percent at this point yet". "For the moment, yes", Cespedes said through a translator. 2B Neil Walker was back in the lineup in the nightcap after not starting the last three games because of an injured left knee.
