WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Atlanta Braves have had enough rallies to know they are rarely out of a game. The Washington Nationals' beleaguered bullpen has struggled enough that few leads seem safe.
A combination of the two led to the Braves' latest win Saturday.
Atlanta used a tie-breaking three-run homer by Dansby Swanson in the eighth inning for a 13-9, come-from-behind win over Washington.
Freddie Freeman drove in five runs as the Braves erased a four-run deficit to win for the 12th time in 15 games and avoided dropping consecutive games for the first time since June 5-6.
