Ruben Tejada went 3-for-3 with a double in the Mets' 7-6 win over the Braves on Thursday. Anthony Recker hit a three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to win it for the Mets. Tejada's strong showing was much-needed; he raised his average from .120 to .217 on the day. Despite his struggles both offensively and defensively this spring, he will be the Mets' starting shortstop.
