ATLANTA — Filling in for fan favorite Freddie Freeman, Matt Adams is doing everything he can to quickly endear himself to his new home crowd.
Of course, that's easier to do when they're actually in their seats.
Adams singled in the winning run with about 200 fans left at SunTrust Park for the ninth inning, lifting the Atlanta Braves over the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-5 early Wednesday morning in a game delayed over three hours by rain.
The delay started in the top of the seventh inning and ended at 12:51 a.m. The game finished just before 2 a.
