Jordan Schafer’s homer caps dramatic G-Braves rally

Jordan Schafer’s home run capped a seven-run rally that propelled the Gwinnett Braves to an 8-7 home victory against Louisville on Tuesday afternoon.

The G-Braves entered the eighth inning trailing 7-1 and tied the score on pinch-hitter Reid Gorecki’s two-out grand slam. Schafer, making his third start since coming off the disabled list, followed with his second homer since joining the G-Braves.

Also in the eighth, Brandon Jones drove home Wes Timmons with a double, and Chris Burke drove home Jones with a single. Gorecki’s grand slam was the team’s first this season.
