What a game to recap, and what a game with another one still to play before we can turn in for the night: the Braves pulled off a wild extra-inning win over the Phillies in Game One on Monday afternoon, blowing a two-run lead in the ninth but then making another two-run lead stand up thanks to Kirby Yates’ efforts in the tenth. At the end of this one, the final score was 10-8, as the Braves and Phillies hit a combined four homers and beat up on each others’ pitching and defense.
Things started out as wackily as they ended in this one.
