The Atlanta Braves homered three times Friday night but the bullpen was unable to protect a late lead in a 7-6 loss in 10 innings to the Tampa Bay Rays. The loss drops Atlanta to 44-46 on the season, but they remain four games back in the NL East standings thanks to a Mets loss to the Pirates. The Braves may not be throwing in the towel yet, but they simply can’t afford to let opportunities like Friday slip away.
