    The Atlanta Braves got a whiff of October in late September.

    The defending NL East champions fell behind the San Diego Padres three times — including on Manny Machado's grand slam — and came back each time to tie the game.

    Because of their fight, they still hold a 1 1/2-game lead in the division while the underperforming Padres won't reach the postseason after a stunning collapse.

    Jorge Soler hit a go-ahead double with one out in the 10th inning for his fourth RBI and the Braves won 10-8 on Saturday to stay 1 1/2 games ahead of Philadelphia while eliminating San Diego from playoff contention.
