MLB: Baltimore 5, Atlanta 4

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.
