Braves rally in ninth as starters struggle

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Long after Bartolo Colon and Tyler Glasnow completed their shaky starts at ESPN's Wide World of Sports complex on Monday afternoon, Adam Walker delivered a walk-off double that gave the Braves a 7-6 win over the Pirates.

Johan Camargo began the bottom of the ninth with a single and was replaced by pinch-runner Ronald Acuna, who scored the winning run from first base after Walker's double hit off the left-center-field wall. Eury Perez's game-tying single accounted for the only run Braves left-hander John Danks surrendered despite retiring just one of the first four batters faced during the top of the ninth inning.
