ATLANTA, June 2 (UPI) -- Yunel Escobar hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning Monday to hand the Atlanta Braves a 7-5 victory over the Florida Marlins.
Escobar had three hits, three RBI and two runs scored. Jeff Francoeur and Mark Teixeira each added a home run for the Braves.
Will Ohman (2-0) pitched a perfect 10th for the win, snapping Atlanta's three-game losing streak.
Dan Uggla doubled twice and scored twice for Florida, which lost for the fifth time in its last six games.
Logan Kensing (3-1) took over the Marlins pitching in the 10th and issued a lead-off walk to Kelly Johnson before Escobar hit an opposite-field game-winner off the top of the wall in right-center.
The Braves scored on a wild pitch in the ninth to send the game into the extra inning.
