Atlanta — The Braves brought their hitting shoes to the yard on Saturday, and the Tigers' sloppy defensive play helped fuel their fire.
Freddie Freeman and Austin Riley blasted two-run home runs off Tigers starter Daniel Norris, Dansby Swanson added a solo rocket off reliever Austin Adams, and the Braves evened the series with a 10-5 win over the Tigers at SunTrust Park.
Four of the Braves' 10 runs were unearned.
Norris cruised through the first three innings, allowing only a triple to Nick Markakis. But after Swanson led off the fourth with a single, Freeman launched a hanging slider off the Chop House in right field.
