For about 8 innings last night, it seemed that every break was going Atlanta’s way. They faced a spot starter in Tanner Roark. They got fielding breaks (no Washington errors were officially recorded, but they did). There was a timely hit or two. Heck, even Adonis Garcia – after making an earlier error – made a spectacular play. There were double plays. Julio Teheran was more-or-less on his game again.
But ultimately, it was the power outage that doomed them again as they could only manage 2 runs against an offense that can seemingly score any time they put their minds to the task.
