It was at times predictable, at times scary, and for a few moments, cause to celebrate. In the end, the Braves salvaged a game of their series with the Colorado Rockies at SunTrust Park, winning 8-7 thanks in large part to late-inning heroics by Josh Donaldson and Luke Jackson. Down by two runs in the bottom of the eighth, Donaldson clobbered a three-run homer to cap the scoring. In the next half-inning, Luke Jackson was summoned from the bullpen after A.J. Minter once again threatened to unravel and got the game’s final two outs to seal the victory.
