How the winning run scored: Knights Josh Bell takes first when he grounds into a force at second for the first out of the seventh. Goes to second and third on a hit batsman and a walk and scores on a two-out bases loaded walk to break a 4-4 tie.

At the plate: Freddie Freeman, who is scheduled to rejoin the major league Braves Monday in Colorado, went 0-2 in the final game of his three-game minor league injury rehab stint. Freeman was 5-10 with all five hits coming in the second of the three games. Braves Joey Terdoslavich was 2-3 with a double and a walk and scored two of the four runs. Joe Leonard was 1-3 with a double and two RBI. The Braves scored three runs in the fourth on two doubles, including Terdoslavich's 11th of the season, and two singles.

On the mound: Braves starter Sean Gilmartin gave up four runs on nine hits with a walk and four strike outs in six innings. Reliever Dusty Hughes (0-2) took the loss, giving up one run with two walks and a hit batsman. Knights Seth Loman was hit by Hughes and Gilmartin. The Knights scored four runs in the first on three singles, a double, a hit batsman and a walk.

Up next Gwinnett: The Braves (8-10) close out the homestand against the Knights (6-12) at 6:05 p.m. Monday. They head out on the road for four each against the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Rail Riders and the Pawtucket Red Sox, before returning home and a day off followed by four each against the Louisville Bats and the Indianapolis Indians.
