April 11, 1972. Atlanta 8, Los Angeles 5.

It was a tale of 2 different games at Dodger Stadium tonight.  The Dodgers jumped all over Braves' rookie starter Ron Schueler for 5 runs over the first 4 innings for a 5-1 lead.  Billy Grabarkewitz hit 2 home runs for 4 runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings.  Willie Davis got things going in the first with an RBI single.  Don Sutton was cruising at the time, allowing only an Orlando Cepeda solo shot on the board for Atlanta.

However, the Braves got rolling in the 5th. Sonny Jackson singled after a long at bat against Sutton.  When all the dust had settled, the Braves scored 3 as they followed up with a Dusty Baker single, a 2-run Felix Millan double and a run scoring grounder by Darrell Evans to draw within 5-4.

Atlanta's relievers didn't allow anything.  Over the last 5 innings the Dodgers could only manage 2 singles and 2 walks against the Braves bullpen.  The Braves were able to get the tying run in the 7th on a Hank Aaron double, but the Dodgers brought in Pete Mikkelsen to wriggle out of a 2nd & 3rd jam with only 1 out.  

As the game went into the 9th, Walt Alston brought in Jim Brewer.  He didn't have an answer.  With one out Darrell Evans hit a solo homer, Hank Aaron walked and Earl Williams hit a 2-run homer to send the game to the bottom of the 9th with Los Angeles trailing 8-5.  The Dodgers got 2 on with 2 out to bring up the tying run, but Cecil Upshaw came in to make sure Billy Grabarkewitz didn't hit another 3-run homer and the game was over.

Braves Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Dodgers, 8-5
Los Angeles second baseman Billy Grabarkewitz pounded Atlanta Braves pitchers at Dodger Stadium 1962-2013, but it was not enough to keep the Dodgers from falling, 8-5. Grabarkewitz was 2-5 with 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The winner was Atlanta reliever Steve Barber, now 1-0. The loser was Jim Brewer. The save was credited to Cecil Upshaw, his 1st.

Hank Aaron, who finished 4th in the NL in OPS with .931 in 1958, aided the Atlanta cause with a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh. For the game, the right fielder went 1-4 with a double and a walk.

"We'll sip on a cold one and savor this win," said Aaron.

The win gives Atlanta a record of 4-2.
