Braves Outlast Suarez’s Historic Four-Homer Game

Suarez joined rare company, becoming only the 19th player in MLB history to hit four homers in a single game. His last blast tied the game in the ninth, but Matt Olson scored the winning run for the Braves on a wild pitch by Arizona’s Justin Martinez.

Even though Suarez delivered a performance for the ages, it was Olson’s heads-up baserunning that ultimately secured the win. Find the latest MLB baseball scores and betting info on SportsHub.
