Austin Riley hit a go-ahead, three-run home run in the eighth inning as the host Atlanta Braves earned a 7-5 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday afternoon to salvage the finale of a three-game series.
Matt Olson followed Riley's blast with a solo shot, finishing with two home runs and three RBIs for the Braves, who snapped a four-game losing streak.
After Corbin Carroll hit a solo home run with two outs in the top of the eighth to give the D-backs a two-run lead, Riley hit his homer off Miguel Castro to give the Braves a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Both starters were stunning through the first two-thirds of the game in what started as a masterclass pitchers' duel.
