The Braves had every opportunity to avoid a sweep at the hands of the Pirates on Sunday. They had the lead going into the bottom of the ninth, but Jim Johnson was unable to lock it down and the game went to extras. The Braves once again had a lead going into the 10th thanks to the team playing A-B-C baseball to manufacture a run, but the Pirates jumped on Jose Ramirez in the bottom of the 10th, and a leadoff double led to a walk-off homer from Starling Marte.
