Braves Earn Clutch Win, 5-4
The Atlanta Braves topped the Washington Nationals, 5-4, in NL action at Turner Field. The standout performance belonged to Atlanta pitcher and Reynosa, Mexico, native Jaime Garcia. Reliever Alan Embree picked up the win. His record improves to 6-2. Aaron Harang, who finished 5th in the NL in innings pitched with 225.1 last year, took the loss. The Atlanta win streak is now 4 games.

Atlanta got a clutch hit from Miguel Figueroa. The first baseman launched a grand slam home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Garcia.
