What happened? In Game 1 of the National League Division Series, we got a pretty clear message from the Atlanta Braves — in any given inning, they can change a game.

It was the seventh inning Tuesday in their second-round series against the Miami Marlins. The Marlins were holding onto a 4-3 lead with one of their best relievers in the game. Then the Braves’ lineup exploded.
