    Chipper Jones wasn't surprised Brian McCann hit the go-ahead homer in the 10th inning. He was only shocked to see him miss his chance to do it in the seventh.

    McCann hit a three-run shot in the 10th inning, lifting the Atlanta Braves to their fifth straight win, 6-3 over the Houston Astros on Saturday night.

    McCann's shot to right field off Brandon Lyon scored Jordan Schafer and Dan Uggla to give him 501 career RBIs and put Atlanta on top 5-2. Schafer singled before Uggla walked.
