"1991 - In Game 7 of the NLCS, the Atlanta Braves' Brian Hunter's two-run home run in the 1st inning is all John Smoltz needs as he tosses a 4 - 0 shutout over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Braves win their first National League pennant since their move from Milwaukee. 1992 - Tom Glavine pitches a complete game to give the Atlanta Braves a 3 - 1 victory over Toronto in Game 1 of the World Series"
"1999 - In the bottom of the 15th inning of Game 5 of the NLCS, Robin Ventura hits a "Grand Slam Single" to lead the New York Mets past the Atlanta Braves, 4 - 3. With the bases loaded and one out in a tie game, Ventura drives a Kevin McGlinchy pitch over the right-center field fence at Shea Stadium, but he is mobbed by his teammates after touching first base and goes no further, making his blast an unusual game-winning single."
