With Raisel Iglesias getting time off from the closer role, Johnson got the save opportunity with a one-run lead against the Giants. He gave up a base hit to Heliot Ramos before Matt Chapman took him deep for a two-run blast to walk it off. Expect the Braves to continue their search for answers in the late innings.

Johnson is next in line for saves in Atlanta if the team pulls the struggling Raisel Iglesias from the closer’s role, but he failed to add to his case tonight. He took over with two on, two outs and a two-run lead in the eighth and gave up a game-tying single to Jarren Duran. Duran was then caught stealing to end the inning, which would prove to be Johnson’s only out. The first batter of the ninth, Rafael Devers, ended the game with a long shot to right. The homer was the first Johnson has allowed this season. He came into the night on an 11-inning scoreless streak.
