 NEW YORK (AP) - Andruw Jones broke out of a big slump with a homer and three hits, and Mike Hampton stayed unbeaten with another solid outing to lead the Atlanta Braves over the New York Mets 8-4 on Wednesday.
Wilson Betemit hit his first major league home run and Eddie Perez also connected for the Braves, who roughed up former teammate Tom Glavine and took two of three from their NL East rivals at Shea Stadium.
Hampton (3-0) pitched seven innings against his old team, giving up home runs to Cliff Floyd and Doug Mientkiewicz. The left-hander improved to 14-1 with a 2.61 ERA since July 4.
