Freddie Freeman posted just the seventh cycle in Atlanta Braves history, leading his team to an 11-9 win over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday night.

The Marlins scored six runs in the bottom of the ninth to make it close, a rally capped by Jesus Sanchez's two-run homer.

Atlanta's Will Smith struck out ex-Braves catcher Alex Jackson with two runners on to end the game.

Miami's pitchers tied a franchise record with 12 walks, including five that drove in runs.

The first-place Braves have won six straight games and 13 of 15.
