Milwaukee third baseman Mike Moustakas delivered a two-run double to spark a three-run eighth-inning rally and help the Brewers defeat the host Atlanta Braves 4-2 on Saturday at SunTrust Park.

Christian Yelich began the inning by reaching on a throwing error by reliever Jesse Biddle (3-1), and Lorenzo Cain followed with a single.

Moustakas then banged a one-strike pitch into the left field corner to drive in two runs.

The Brewers added another run when reliever Dan Winkler deflected a liner struck by Erik Kratz that allowed Ryan Braun to score.

Atlanta scored again in the fourth inning. Freddie Freeman doubled to right off the glove of first baseman Eric Thames and scored when Nick Markakis lined a single that was also deflected by Thames.

The Braves made a roster move on Saturday, recalling left-hander Kolby Allard from Triple-A Gwinnett and sending lefty Chad Bell back to the Stripers.
