ATLANTA, July 3 (UPI) -- Mark Reynolds clouted a go-ahead, two-run homer in the seventh inning Sunday and the Baltimore Orioles held on for a 5-4 interleague win over Atlanta.

The Braves had erased an earlier Baltimore lead with a four-run sixth, but the O's came right back for two in the next frame and went on to salvage one win in their three-game set at Turner Field.

Nick Markakis delivered a one-out single and, after Adam Jones struck out, Reynolds blasted the first he saw from Scott Proctor (1-2) deep into the left field stands.

Jim Johnson (5-1) got credit for the win despite allowing a run in the Braves' big sixth. Koji Uehara tossed a scoreless eighth and Kevin Gregg collected his 15th save in the O's victory.

Eric Hinske delivered a pinch-hit, two-run single for the Braves.
