Braves win series finale over Brewers with walk-off homer

The Atlanta Braves secured a series victory over the Milwaukee Brewers with a dramatic walk-off win on Saturday, setting the stage for a potential sweep in the finale of their three-game weekend series. The Braves won 4-3 after second baseman Ozzie Albies hit his second home run of the game, a two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth inning off reliever Aaron Ashby.

Albies had earlier broken a scoreless tie with a solo home run in the fifth inning off Brewers starter Kyle Harrison. Milwaukee responded by taking a 3-1 lead, scoring on a sacrifice fly by Gary Sanchez, an RBI single by Andrew Vaughn, and a groundout that brought in Cooper Pratt. Atlanta chipped away with a run in the seventh when Albies scored on a groundout, setting up his game-winning heroics.

The victory on Saturday followed a 3-2 Braves win on Friday night. In that contest, Atlanta overcame an early 1-0 deficit with a two-run single from Mauricio Dubon in the sixth inning. A solo home run from Mike Yastrzemski provided a critical insurance run, and closer Raisel Iglesias secured the save despite a rocky ninth inning. Braves starter Martin Perez delivered six strong innings, allowing one earned run.
