Keston Hiura hit a walk-off, two-run home run in the bottom of the 11th inning as the Milwaukee Brewers earned a 7-6 win against the visiting Atlanta Braves on Wednesday afternoon in the finale of their three-game series.

After Travis d'Arnaud hit a go-ahead single to put the Braves up 6-5, Hiura led off the home 11th with a blast over the center-field wall, plating ghost runner Jace Peterson to give the Brewers the series win.

Trailing 4-3, Kolten Wong tied things up in the bottom of the ninth, lacing an RBI triple down the right-field line with two outs to send the game into extra innings.

The Braves took a lead in the 10th after Wong made a throwing error that allowed Ronald Acuna Jr. to score, but Hunter Renfroe's sacrifice fly tied things once again.

Renfroe went 2-for-3 with a double and a walk, and has now hit safely in six of his last seven games. Tyrone Taylor went 2-for-5 with a pair of singles.

Acuna was hit by a pitch and Matt Olson singled. Austin Riley then blasted his eighth home run of the season, a three-run shot, to break the scoreless tie. Marcell Ozuna followed with a solo homer to put the Braves up 4-0.

Riley and Ozuna both finished 2-for-5 on the afternoon. Olson went 2-for-4 with a double and a walk.

Milwaukee kept things close, plating a pair of runs in their half of the fourth thanks to back-to-back RBI singles from Taylor and Rowdy Tellez.
