    In the 10th inning on a night when his Atlanta Braves trailed most of the game, Ramiro Pena -- proud owner of two career homers in the majors to that point -- was looking for one thing.

    A fastball down the middle.

    He got one.

    "I was just going to concentrate on one pitch, and he threw it right there," Pena said, "and good thing I didn't miss."

    Pena hit a two-run homer off Craig Stammen with two outs in the 10th, and the Braves stretched their winning streak to seven games by coming back to beat NL East rival Washington 6-4 on Friday night.
