ATLANTA (AP) — Alex Verdugo's single off Andrew Chafin drove in Eli White from second base in the bottom of the ninth and the Atlanta Braves recovered after blowing a two-run lead to beat Washington 4-3 on Monday night and hand the Nationals their sixth consecutive loss.
White led off the ninth with a single off Jackson Rutledge (0-1) before advancing to second on Nick Allen's sacrifice. Verdugo's game-ending single up the middle drove in White.
Grant Holmes allowed one run and four hits, including a fourth-inning homer by James Wood, in 6 1/3 innings.
Marcell Ozuna drove in two runs with two hits, including a 464-foot homer off Jake Irvin in the fifth.
