Charlie Culberson came through again with a pinch-hit two-run home run to give the Atlanta Braves a walk-off win against the Washington Nationals. The Braves take three of four from the Nationals in the series and will head out on a west coast trip with a 1.5 game lead in the NL East.
As expected, the Braves reinstated LHP Luiz Gohara from the restricted list on Sunday after he returned from Brazil. Gohara is expected to take on a bullpen roll for the time being. To make room on the active roster, Atlanta outrighted RHP Miguel Socolovich to Triple-A Gwinnett
Jesse Biddle wasn’t even on the Braves’ roster when the season began but he is emerging as one of their most reliable relief options.
