Sean Murphy hit a game-tying two-run homer in the ninth inning and Marcell Ozuna lined a tiebreaking sacrifice fly to center in the 11th as the Atlanta Braves rallied for a 5-4 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night in Phoenix.
Arizona was two strikes away from winning in the ninth when Murphy hit a 431-foot blast to right-center off Paul Sewald. It was Murphy's fifth homer of the season and also represented Sewald's third straight blown save.
Austin Riley also homered for the Braves, who won their third straight game. Corbin Carroll had the lone run-scoring hit for the Diamondbacks, who had just four hits. Arizona missed a chance to move above .500 for the first time since April 3.
Twins 8, White Sox 6 (11 innings) Brooks Lee delivered a go-ahead RBI single in the 11th inning and Byron Buxton had three hits to boost Minnesota to a victory against host Chicago.
