Sure, with the noon start time and Trade Deadline madness – a complete overhaul of the bullpen that brought Chris Martin, Shane Greene, and Mark Melacon to Atlanta – it may have been easy miss, but the Atlanta Braves picked up a pivotal series win against the Nationals on Wednesday afternoon, edging second-place Washington by a final of 5-4 in a wild 10-inning contest.
It was a game that started beautifully for Atlanta, was turned sideways late, and was saved at the end by some clutch offense.
Sound familiar?
