Jansen, who had 41 saves last year in his only season with the Braves, faced four batters for his ninth save in 10 chances.

Triston Casas hit a two-run homer 442 feet off Braves closer Raisel Iglesias to make it 5-2 in the ninth as it was the first long ball Iglesias has allowed since last June 16, snapping a homerless innings streak of 42 2/3 innings.
