Braves have reason to reJoyce as they sweep Marlins with 12-inning, 7-6 comeback surge

For the second time in three Sundays, the Braves rallied to tie the game in the ninth and took the lead on a bases-loaded walk. Their 7-6 win was delayed a bit even after those two late-game boons as Luke Jackson allowed a game-tying run to score, but another rally, capped by Matt Joyce’s third hit of the day, finally gave the Braves a lead that would hold and deliver unto them a sweep.

Max Fried, whose starting gig in this game feels like ages ago, had somewhat of a bounceback effort after getting knocked around by the Nationals and Pirates in his two prior outings.
