Atlanta Braves' Collapse Against New York Yankees Stands Alone in MLB History

Midway through Saturday's showdown with the New York Yankees, the Atlanta Braves were in complete control.

Atlanta scored once in the third and four times in the third, holding a 5-0 lead when spot starter Joey Wentz finally got the hook after 4.0 innings of work. Even when the Yankees got two runs on the board against Wander Suero in the fifth, the Braves answered with a two-spot in the bottom of the frame.

Suero's struggles were just the beginning, though.

Enyel De Los Santos was next up out of the bullpen, issuing three singles, a walk and a run without recording an out.
