Braves Get Second Straight Walk-Off Win, Take 2-0 NLCS Lead

For the second straight night, the Braves and Dodgers appeared destined to head into extra innings. And for the second straight night, Atlanta delivered a clutch hit when it mattered most.

Eddie Rosario drove a two-out single off of Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen that scored Dansby Swanson, as the Braves notched a walk-off win for the second consecutive game to take a 2-0 NLCS lead over the defending champs. While Game 1's victory was a stalemate all game long, Sunday's victory required a heavier lift to overcome a late deficit.

The Dodgers jumped to a 2-0 lead two batters into the game thanks to a two-run homer by shortstop Corey Seager.
