After being held out of two straight games because of his struggles this season, B.J. Upton returned to the Braves and delivered a walk-off single on Saturday against the Nationals.

Upton had two hits in the game. There has been talk that Atlanta might ask him to work out his issues in the minor leagues.

He was hitting only .145 at the start of the game. The two hits raised his average by eight points.

"B.J. came up with a huge hit at the end," Tim Hudson said. "I know it's something he can be proud of and so are we.

"Everybody knows how hard he's been working to try to get things back on track. Hopefully this is just a small sign of things to come. Everybody is really happy for him and it was exciting to see."
