Matt Olson capped an explosive series with a tiebreaking three-run homer to lead the visiting Atlanta Braves to a 7-6 win Sunday over the Cincinnati Reds.
Olson, who belted his 200th career homer in Saturday's win, finished the three-game set with four home runs, giving him 25 on the season. The Braves won their 10th game in 11 tries and lead the majors with 139 home runs.
Raisel Iglesias earned his second save in as many days and his 12th in 14 chances this season when Kevin Newman grounded into a 5-4-3 double play to end the game with the potential tying run at third base. The four total extra-base hits matched a Reds rookie record, last set by Chris Sabo on June 18, 1988.
The Braves scored first for the third straight game, scoring three times in the third against emergency starter Levi Stoudt, filling in for the injured Ben Lively.
