May 6, 2025; Cumberland, Georgia, USA; Atlanta Braves pitcher Chris Sale (51) pitches ball against the Cincinnati Reds during the first inning at Truist Park. Mandatory Credit: Jordan Godfree-Imagn Images Marcell Ozuna singled home the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Atlanta Braves a 2-1 win over the visiting Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday.
With runners on first and second, Ozuna lined a single to left field off reliever Lyon Richardson (0-1), who had been recalled from Triple-A Louisville earlier in the day. The hit scored automatic runner Alex Verdugo without a throw.
Raisel Iglesias (2-2) was the winning pitcher for the Braves.
The win was the third straight for Atlanta and the fourth loss in a row for the Reds. Atlanta has won the first two games in the four-game set.
Both teams scored a run in the ninth inning.
Santiago Espinal broke the scoreless tie with an RBI single off reliever Daysbel Hernandez to drive in Elly De La Cruz, who singled and stole second base. Espinal, who ended a no-hitter in the eighth inning on Monday, extended his hitting streak to seven games.
The Braves tied the game in the bottom half against closer Emilio Pagan. Sean Murphy walked and pinch-runner Stuart Fairchild scored when Michael Harris II laced a double to right field to tie the game.
Cincinnati starter Andrew Abbott pitched five scoreless innings. He allowed four hits, no walks and struck out eight in his first career start against the Braves.
Atlanta starter Chris Sale threw 6 2/3 scoreless innings in his 300th career start. He allowed five hits, two walks and struck out 10 for the second straight game.
Both teams wasted scoring opportunities earlier in the game.
The Reds had a couple of good chances to score. They had runners at second and third with one out in the first inning and failed to score. Austin Wynns opened the seventh inning with a double off the top of the wall in left and Cincinnati couldn’t cash in.
The Braves had runners on the corners with no outs and the bases loaded with two outs in the seventh inning and failed to score.
The Reds said Tyler Callihan broke two bones in his left forearm on Monday when he crashed into the sidewall down the left field line. Callihan underwent surgery Tuesday and is expected to miss at least two months.

Jayson Tatum needs to save Celtics from fire after another collapse against Knicks
BOSTON – What would Jayson Tatum have said? How would he have explained his turnover with two seconds left in the Celtics’ 91-90 Game 2 loss to the Knicks? How would he have reacted after one of the worst postseason outings of his career, which ended with a 1-of-5 fourth quarter during his team’s second straight second-half collapse?AdvertisementWould Tatum have projected confidence? Would he have sounded defeated? Would he have waved aside his struggles and set a defiant tone for the rest of the second-round series? Nobody knows for sure because a fire alarm went off inside TD Garden before Tatum could deliver his postgame interview Wednesday night. An arena employee rushed into the news conference room to alert the media that everyone needed to evacuate the building. Fire trucks were stationed near an exit on a side street off […]
For the Nuggets, Friday’s Game 3 starts with matching the Thunder’s physicality
OKLAHOMA CITY — In the first half of Monday night’s Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, David Adelman glanced toward the opposite sideline and saw OKC running players to the scorer’s table at almost every dead ball. The Denver Nuggets went on to win the series opener of a Western Conference semifinals matchup. But that image was an indelible one to Adelman, Denver’s interim head coach.Advertisement“Wow. They have a lot of guys,” Adelman recalls thinking.It underscores the challenge the Nuggets are facing. The ragtag and resilient group pulled off the heist of the century with Monday night’s Game 1 win, rallying from almost 15 points down and walking off the game with Aaron Gordon’s miracle 3-pointer. But even with that 1-0 series lead, those challenges remain. And all those challenges presented themselves at once in the 149-106 Game 2 […]
Xavi Hernandez interview: Collecting 400 shirts, watching eight games a day, wanting to coach in the Premier League
“Papa, did you really play with Messi?” asks Xavi Hernandez’s son, Dan, aged six.“Yes.”“Neymar?”“Yes.”“Pele?”“No, no, no.”“Cristiano?”“No, but I played against him many times.”“Do you really know Messi, Papa? Do you have his number? Do you have the number of Cristiano? Do you really know Lamine?”AdvertisementXavi Hernandez, 45, is walking around a museum-like section of his family home in central Barcelona amid hundreds of football shirts that he’s either worn or swapped with opponents. One of few people in football to play more than 1,000 professional games, 767 of them for FC Barcelona’s first team, there’s a lot to go at.Then there are the shirts acquired in his 133 games for Spain. And the trophies, so many trophies, individual and team. He’s there in France Football’s all-time Ballon d’Or Dream team with Ronaldo, Messi, Maradona, Maldini and the Brazilian Ronaldo. And […]
Inter and PSG are the right Champions League finalists – they have been the best teams
With the unpredictable nature of knockout football, both in terms of the matches and the draws, it is rarely the case that you can unequivocally say the best two teams reached the final of any given competition.Unless there’s a perfect seeding system in place and the big favourites and best teams win at every opportunity (UEFA is giving this a good go to be fair), that final is always at risk of not playing host to the two best sides.AdvertisementToo right, too. Such a notion would make football incredibly predictable and therefore tedious (more so than some of you will think it is already).Open draws do often throw up, though, a fixture that has the talent, gravitas and feel of a final but is played at too early a stage to feel satisfactory.This is often the case in World Cups […]
New York znovu otočil zápas NBA v Bostonu, Oklahoma City srovnala s Denverem
To Oklahoma City oplatila Denveru úvodní porážku a šlo o odpověď ve velkém stylu: Thunder zvítězili 149:106 a vytvořili si klubový rekord v počtu bodů v play off a zároveň vyrovnali rekord NBA v počtu bodů za poločas ve vyřazovací fázi. Jediným týmem, který dal rovněž 87 bodů za poločas, bylo Milwaukee v roce 1978.New York otáčel už první zápas s Bostonem, ale ve druhém vše nasvědčovalo tomu, že Celtics potvrdí roli favorita. Od začátku měli převahu a tři minuty před koncem třetí čtvrtiny vedli už o 20 bodů. Jenže závěr třetí části New York vyhrál 8:0 a začal ztrátu stahovat. V poslední čtvrtině se pak probudil Mikal Bridges, který byl do té doby bez bodu, ale pak dal 14 bodů za pět minut. A dvě minuty před koncem najednou Knicks těsně vedli.Opaření Celtics si zvládli vzít vedení zpět 19 sekund před sirénou smečí Jaysona Tatuma. Jenže pak byl faulován Brunson a proměnil oba trestné hody a zařídil Knicks druhé vítězství a také […]
Es geht um seinen Abschied – Real überrascht Alonso und Leverkusen
Ziemlich genau um 14 Uhr setzt sich Xabi Alonso am Sonntag in den Mannschaftsbus des entthronten Meisters Leverkusen. Es wird voraussichtlich seine letzte Dienstfahrt zu einem Heimspiel in der BayArena. Zuvor stellt er seine Profis im Team-Hotel „Kasino“ auf das Spiel gegen Dortmund ein. Der Großteil seiner Arbeit ist dann getan. Nach zehn Minuten Fahrtzeit kommt der Trainer in der Stadion-Tiefgarage an. Im schwarzen Trainingsanzug geht er durch die Mannschaftskabine in den kleinen Flur, an den die Trainerbüros anschließen. Sein Bereich liegt hinter der ersten Tür auf der rechten Seite. Hier zieht er sich um. Weiße Adidas-Turnschuhe „Stan Smith“, blaue Chino-Hose, Pulli in Blau oder Beige – das typische Spieltags-Outfit. Alles wird am Sonntag wie immer sein. Nicht einmal eine offizielle Verabschiedung ist für den erfolgreichsten Trainer der Vereinsgeschichte geplant. Grund: Es gibt noch keine Klarheit, ob der Spanier zu […]
