The New York Mets lost 5-3 to the Atlanta Braves on July 3, 2026, at Truist Park. After a two-run blast from Michael Harris II put Atlanta ahead, Juan Soto equalized with a home run but the Braves responded quickly. Ozzie Albies and Matt Olson added home runs, while Bo Bichette's late hit wasn't enough to change the outcome. The Mets' season remains disappointing, with little hope of turnaround.
