Card Back Story
Following Ozzie Albies' RBI single in the bottom of the eighth inning, the Atlanta Braves trailed the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-3. Austin Riley was up next and carried his clutch gene over from Game 1 to Game 2 with a game-tying, RBI double off of the base of the center-field wall. The 24-year-old third baseman struck the ball well enough for Albies to score from first and sent the game to the ninth inning in a 4-4 tie.
