MLB News: Braves sink Mariners on Matt Olson’s ninth-inning HR

Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Matt Olson hit a tiebreaking home run leading off the ninth inning as the Atlanta Braves rallied to defeat the host Seattle Mariners 3-2 on Tuesday night.

The Braves, who haven’t lost a series all season, will have a chance to continue that streak Wednesday afternoon when three-game interleague set wraps up.

Olson hammered a 2-1 slider from Mariners closer Andres Munoz (3-3) 412 feet to left-center field. It was Olson’s second homer in as many nights and his National League-leading 13th of the season.

Braves reliever Robert Suarez (3-0) pitched a 1-2-3 eighth and closer Raisel Iglesias, activated from the injured list (right shoulder inflammation) earlier in the day, worked the ninth for his sixth save.

The Mariners took the lead in the third. Mitch Garver drew a leadoff walk and an out later Crawford went deep to right field, his second consecutive game with a homer after hitting a go-ahead shot in a 5-4 victory Monday.

The Braves responded in the fourth. Ozzie Albies grounded a one-out single to center and took third on Olson’s single to right. Olson advanced to second on the play as Luke Raley’s throw sailed over the cutoff man in an unlikely attempt to nab Albies.

That proved pivotal as Mauricio Dubon grounded a two-out double just inside the first base bag, with both runners scoring to tie it at 2-2.

Braves right-handed starter Bryce Elder, pitched six innings and allowed two runs on as many hits, with three walks and a season-high nine strikeouts.

Mariners starter George Kirby went seven innings and gave up two runs on five hits. The right-hander walked one and fanned five.

Seattle’s Cal Raleigh served as the designated hitter after missing the previous three games with discomfort in his right side. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts.
