ATLANTA (AP) — Brian McCann drove in three runs with a homer and two doubles and the Atlanta Braves overcame an injury to starter Kris Medlen to beat the New York Mets 8-3 Wednesday night.

The right-handed Medlen left the game in the fifth inning after hurting the ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow. He will have an MRI exam on Thursday.

Chipper Jones and McCann hit back-to-back homers off Mike Pelfrey (10-6) in the third inning. McCann’s line-drive shot into the right-field seats gave the Braves a 3-2 lead.

Melky Cabrera added a homer off Raul Valdes in the Atlanta eighth.
