In a game reminiscent of their comeback victory in San Francisco, the Braves overcame a five-run deficit to defeat the Padres 6-5.
The Padres jumped on Mike Foltynewicz in the second inning with an RBI double by Clint Barmes; Will Venable then homered leading off the third inning for a 2-0 lead. Yonder Alonso's run-scoring single in the fifth increased the lead to 3-0. Folty was one out away from a perfect sixth until his counterpart James Shields singled; he then allowed back-to-back doubles on consecutive pitches to Venable and Derek Norris, putting the Braves in a 5-0 hole.
