Drake Baldwin had another monster night at the plate that made the difference between the Atlanta Braves being blown out by the Marlins and coming back to win the game 8-6.

He went 3-for-5 with two home runs and five RBIs in the winning effort. A couple weeks ago, he became the first Braves rookie in 20 years to have five RBIs in a game, and he’s already gone out there and repeated that performance.

Big moments aren’t something he’s shied away from this season, and the veteran-level poise and patience allowed him to deliver.
