Suter, whose night was extended by the Reds’ rally, retired the Braves in order in the top of the ninth, and the hometown boy with a degree from Harvard was demonstrative in his celebration after sending the game to the bottom of the ninth inning.

The Cincinnati Reds and Atlanta Braves completed their pre-game ceremonies but then entered a rain delay at Bristol Motor Speedway. The game will not start at its originally-scheduled first-pitch time of 7:15 p.m.
