The Braves beat the Mets on Sunday, their 23rd straight victory in games started by Kris Medlen.
Medlen gave up one unearned run and three hits in six innings.
Atlanta has already clinched a National League wild-card spot and is on track to host the one-game playoff, which Medlen would start.
"I think the best part about it is my name is in the history books, but it's a team thing," Medlen said. "It's a really cool feeling. Like I said, we're not done. I hope we keep going."
According to STATS LLC, only two other teams won 22 straight starts by a pitcher: the New York Giants with Carl Hubbell (1936-37) and the Yankees with Whitey Ford (1950-53). Ford's streak was interrupted by military service.
