MIAMI -- Atlanta Braves backup catcher Gerald Laird watched the first 12 innings of Monday nights game from the bench and still found himself exhausted at the end. "Im so tired," Laird muttered as he collapsed into a chair at his locker shortly before midnight. The Braves went without a baserunner for 24 consecutive batters before their bats came to life in the 14th inning, when they scored six times to beat the Miami Marlins 7-1. Justin Upton broke a tie by driving in two runs when he doubled for Atlantas first hit since the sixth, and Laird added a two-out, two-run single. "Its a weird game," Laird said. "We gave our offence a chance, and we knew we werent going to get shut out all night." Five Miami relievers combined to retire 24 batters in a row before Reed Johnson walked to start the 14th against Chris Hatcher (0-1). Jason Heyward walked with one out, and Uptons double scored both runners. After Lairds hit, Chris Johnson added an RBI single with the bases loaded, and another run scored when the ball skipped past left fielder Justin Ruggiano for an error. Seven relievers for the two teams combined to retire 30 straight hitters from the eighth to the 13th. "Our innings felt like they were going fast," Atlantas Dan Uggla said. "I didnt know what inning it was, but I realized we hadnt had a baserunner in forever. Once Reed got on I thought, OK, maybe something will get sparked right here." David Carpenter (2-0) pitched two innings and escaped a jam in the 13th. The Braves earned their 26th comeback victory, most in the NL, and improved to 11-2 in two years at Marlins Park. "To win that was big," Uggla said. "It stinks to play games like that and then lose." The Marlins fell to 0-13 this season when their retractable roof is open -- sort of. On a balmy 86-degree night, the game began with the roof open, but it was closed in the seventh inning when rain moved into the area. Miami stranded 12 and went 2 for 10 with runners in scoring position. The Marlins first two batters reached in the 13th, but Logan Morrison grounded into a double play and Adeiny Hechavarria popped out. Atlantas Mike Minor allowed six hits and one run in 6 1-3 innings, then watched the rest of the 4-hour, 14-minute game on a clubhouse TV. "I was sitting here forever," he said. "They played more than I pitched. It doubled the game." Minor struck out Jeff Mathis on a 3-2 fastball with the bases loaded to end the sixth and keep the score tied. In the seventh, Miami stole three bases -- two on a double steal -- and still couldnt score. In the ninth, Heyward made a leaping catch at the 392-foot sign in right field to rob Ruggiano of an extra-base hit. "We had tons of opportunities and just couldnt get the big hit," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "In those close games, its going to come down to whos going to get it, and they got it." Ruggianos two-out RBI single in the fifth delivered the Marlins only run. Four pitchers cooled off the Braves Brian McCann, who went 0 for 5. He was batting .512 over the previous 11 games. Kevin Slowey, making his first start since June 12 for Miami, pitched five shutout innings before departing for a pinch hitter after throwing only 69 pitches. Slowey took the spot in the rotation vacated when Ricky Nolasco was traded Saturday to the Dodgers. "Its an odd spot to find yourself in -- throwing early in a long, long game like that and being relegated to cheerleading," Slowey said. Marlins starters have allowed fewer than four runs in 19 of the past 21 games. Dan Jennings followed Slowey to the mound, and the Marlins 1-0 lead was gone two batters later. Heyward hit his first triple of the season and scored on a sacrifice fly by Upton. NOTES: After the game, the Marlins optioned Hatcher to Triple-A New Orleans. ...

Raymond van Barneveld Van Barneveld remains one of the popular figures in darts Van Barneveld is obviously the doyen of Dutch darts, with five world titles which puts him up there with the very best, and just an iconic figure.None of the watching fans can ever forget that 2007 final against Phil Taylor when he famously won from three sets to nil down, winning the sudden death leg, and it was just a spine-tingling sporting occasion. It was something that I still get misty-eyed about.Van Barneveld has continued to stay at the top, despite all of the challenges that have been presented by numerous players. When people thought he was a fading force, Barney won the 2012 Grand Slam of Darts final, beating Van Gerwen in the final. Two years ago Raymond van Barneveld managed to pip compatriot and world champion Michael van Gerwen to the Premier League title Perhaps an even finer hour was the 2014 Premier League win when he beat Taylor and Van Gerwen on the same night and at last years World Championship, he became the Rocky Balboa of darts, who was coming back for one more title shot. Coming off the canvas to knock out Van Gerwen, I would say it was one of the greatest games ever played at Alexandra Palace. Hes just part of so many great moments and great games in the modern history of darts. Jelle Klaasen Jelle Klaasen defeated Raymond van Barneveld to win the BDO world title Everyone remembers when Jelle Klaasen burst onto the scene as this youngster in the 2006 BDO World Championship. He became the youngest winner at 21 years and 90 days when he memorably shocked Van Barneveld.This stylish young star, with real panache and a speedy throw was catapulted to the top, and everyone expected him to be the face of darts. But he would lose to compatriot Co Stompe in the first round at Lakeside in 2007, switched across to the PDC and almost disappeared off the darting map. Sixteen-time world champion Phil Taylor is out of the World Darts Championship after a 4-3 defeat to Jelle Klaasen in the third round Klaasen handed out roses during his ill-fated stint as El Matador in the Premier League in 2009, but then he changed his nickname to the Cobbra and really struck back on the darting scene.dddddddddddd He could have beaten Gary Anderson in the 2015 PDC World Championship, when Gary went on to win it. But he had a memorable run to this years semi-finals, with thrilling wins over Taylor and Alan Norris, using the most obscure routes to checkouts. The speed and idiosyncrasy of his throw make him such an attractive watch. Roland Scholten Roland Scholten celebrates with the UK Open title Scholten was one of the great characters in the early days of the PDC. You always felt the man nicknamed Tripod would be there or thereabouts in big tournaments. He won the UK Open in 2004 and beat John Part in the final.Probably his most memorable match was the 2005 semi-final of the Premier League against Phil Taylor, who was unbeatable at that time. Roland had him on the ropes at 11-7 up, but Phil then reeled off six legs to win 13-11. Scholten pushed Taylor to the brink in the Premier League He had that purple patch of 2005-06 when he was right up there and the great shame for Roland was he developed neck and shoulder problems which first hampered his game and then destroyed it. He never really recovered, despite operations, and it was a star that burned brightly for a quite a short period of time. Co Stompe Co Stompe was a firm favourite with the fans Co is a charming man. His pre-match and post-match celebration, that Karate Kid mimickry, makes him look like a stork and its wonderful, isnt it? The chant that used to go round the Alexandra Palace to the tune of the Pompey Chimes of play up Stompe, Stompe play up, is the finest darts chant of them all. Those patches of brilliance were too few and too far between for Co, but he was a character and always entertaining to watch. Rod Studd Co did play up at the Palace, he had some good runs there to the quarter-finals. His finest hour was arguably at the 2010 German Darts Open, where he beat Phil in the final with an average of 107. It was one of those games when Phil Taylor had to turn round and say you were too good for me today, Co. Those patches of brilliance were too few and too far between for Co, but he was a character and always entertaining to watch. He had a curious, stacatto throwing style which saw him jab his hand forward twice before releasing, which was not one to mimic. But it certainly worked for Co. Toon Greebe Toon Greebe holds two proud victories over Michael van Gerwen If you say to someone: name the only darts player who has a 100 per cent record against the great Michael van Gerwen? I think you would get down a lot of guesses before you got to the answer. And the answer is 27-year-old Toon Greebe, who has beaten Michael on both occasions they met. Its an amazing statistic and the fact that Toon has disappeared and plays local events in Holland, means its unlikely to be broken. Rod Studd In the first of their two tour matches, Greebe defeated Van Gerwen 6-2 in Austria, and he would complete another 6-5 win over Mighty Mike in Spain in 2012. Its an amazing statistic and the fact that Toon has disappeared and plays local events in Holland, means its unlikely to be broken. As a teenager in 2008, he played in his first PDC World Championship and had Peter Manley in a spot of bother before going down 3-2. He again played at Alexandra Palace two years later, losing to John Part, before he gradually drifted off the PDC circuit. Watch Premier League Darts on Thursday live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 7pm.
