Braves closer Craig Kimbrel's ninth inning Wednesday did not go as smoothly as usual for the All-Star, but he was able to work out of trouble to close out a 6-3 win.
Facing the top of the Nationals' lineup, Kimbrel allowed a leadoff double followed by a walk, before striking out the next two batters. He then walked the bases loaded and had to face Wilson Ramos, who represented the winning run. Kimbrel induced a line drive out to right field to end the game, securing his 36th save of the season.
Kimbrel is 36 for 39 in save chances, with a 1.19 ERA and 0.95 ERA.
