Three Cuts: Walks-offs, luxuries of six-man rotation, Braves’ catchers on pace for painful record

ATLANTA -- Brandon Phillips and the Braves have made a habit out of this.

A day after singling in the game-winning run in the ninth against the Marlins, the Braves' veteran second basemen repeated the feat Sunday, driving home Johan Camargo for a 5-4 victory.

That wild 48 hours made Phillips the first Atlanta player to deliver back-to-back walk-off wins since Ozzie Virgil on Sept. 18 and 19, 1988 and the Braves now have five such wins this season, tying them with the Phillies for the most in the National League. They also have 11 wins in their last at-bat, tied for the MLB lead.
