Braves Flashback/Recap: July 5

If this game had a subtitle, it would be “wet, but weird.” Because that’s what it was.

The gist: Greg Maddux allowed essentially nothing but back-to-back homers to Orlando Cabrera and Brad Wilkerson in the fourth. The Braves got a run back on a sacrifice fly, but squandered a bunch of baserunners against the Montreal bullpen. They then had the strangest ninth inning rally ever, where a leadoff single, an error, a walk, and a hit by pitch tied the game, and then later, another walk gave them a walkoff win.
