Spring training roundup: Braves lose lead in ninth, still edge Jays

March 21 - The host Atlanta Braves blew a three-run lead in the top of the ninth, but Leury Garcia came to the rescue with a walk-off RBI single in the bottom of the frame for a 10-9 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday in North Port, Fla.

Atlanta needed just three more outs to wrap up a 9-6 win, but Rafael Lantigua smacked a two-run homer and Arjun Nimmala followed with a solo shot to draw Toronto even.

Wes Parsons (0-1) got the first two outs of the bottom of the ninth before Garcia delivered his game-winning hit.
