The Marlins scored six runs in the bottom of the ninth to make it close, a rally capped by Jesus Sanchez's two-run homer.
Atlanta's Will Smith struck out ex-Braves catcher Alex Jackson with two runners on to end the game.
Miami's pitchers tied a franchise record with 12 walks, including five that drove in runs.
The first-place Braves have won six straight games and 13 of 15.
