ATLANTA, Aug. 15 (UPI) -- Omar Infante singled home the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning Saturday to give the Atlanta Braves a 4-3 victory over Philadelphia.

Garret Anderson singled to start the inning. Matt Diaz then bunted in front of the mound.

Relief pitcher Brad Lidge bobbled the ball and threw wildly to first, with Anderson scoring and Diaz reaching third.

Lidge (0-5) walked two to load the bases before Infante bounced the first pitch into left field to win the game.

Brian McCann hit a two-run homer for the Braves, who have won eight of their last 10 games.

Atlanta starter Kenshin Kawakami gave up three runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings. The comeback made a winner of Peter Moylan (5-2), who pitched a scoreless inning of relief.
