Braves Win with Late Heroics
The Atlanta Braves picked up a win at Coca-Cola Field, downing the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-6, in 10 innings. On the mound for Atlanta was right-hander Wilfred Colvin, who played a pivotal role in the win. With the win, the Braves sit at 74-74.

A crucial at-bat came with the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the seventh inning. That's when first baseman Nick Sprague, who finished 4th in the NL in batting average with .331 in 2106, hit a 2-run single. The Braves went on to win.

"Exciting game to play in," said Sprague. "Getting the win makes it even better."
