ATLANTA -- Learning to win on the road is a big deal for any young team. So the question when the Rays rolled into SunTrust Park on Tuesday night was simple: Could the hottest team in baseball extend the Majors' longest current winning streak while playing on the road?
Tampa Bay got its answer in a 9-5 loss to the Braves, which snapped its winning streak at eight. The Rays entered the game with a 41-24 record at home, and they are now 29-38 on the road.
"I don't know if it's something we really think about too much," Matt Duffy said.
