ATLANTA — For five and a half innings, the Atlanta Braves appeared to be dead in the water. Zack Wheeler was spinning a no-hitter and the Braves’ hitters were doing well just to get a fly ball out of the infield. Baseball can be cruel sometimes, especially in the postseason. It is also true that things can turn on a dime and the Braves’ 5-4 win in Game 2 is a shining example.
There were so many big moments. Ronald Acuña Jr’s two-out walk in the sixth turned into Atlanta’s first run. Ozzie Albies broke up the no-hitter with a single to right.
