How the game was won: Jonny Gomes drove in three runs with a two-out double in the first inning, and the Braves got six strong innings from starter Shelby Miller (five hits, two runs, three walks, six strikeouts) and three scoreless innings from their bullpen. Gomes cleared the bases with a line drive over the head of center fielder Dalton Pompey, who misread the ball off the bat. Gomes added a sacrifice fly in the third following a throwing error by Pompey.

Number: 11. Times that Nick Markakis reached base in 15 plate appearances in the series. The Braves right fielder was 7-for-10 with four walks, and ranks among National League leaders with a .375 batting average.
