Ozzie Albies's at-bat in the top of the seventh inning was a big one for Atlanta. Coming to bat with two out, runners on 1st and 3rd and Atlanta leading 5-4, the designated hitter hit a run-scoring double.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Acuna Jr. told reporters after the game.
