Christian Walker powers Diamondbacks to comeback win at Braves

By the Associated Press

ATLANTA – Christian Walker homered leading off the ninth inning and the Arizona Diamondbacks rallied against the shaky Atlanta bullpen for a 9-6 victory Tuesday night as the Braves squandered a massive, knee-buckling homer by Ronald Acuña Jr. and another strong start by Max Fried.

Johan Camargo’s three-run double in the fifth put the Braves ahead. Fried finally gave up his first earned runs of the season but left with a 5-2 lead, only to watch the relievers give it away. Chad Sobotka and Jesse Biddle didn’t retire anyone as the Diamondbacks pushed across four runs in the seventh to reclaim the lead.
