Braves blitz Carlos Rodón as Yankees lose 3rd in a row

NEW YORK — The Yankees dropped their third straight game on Friday after the Braves jumped on Carlos Rodón.

Atlanta wasted no time in its 8-1 win, as Ozzie Albies followed Jarred Kelenic’s leadoff single with a two-run homer off of the southpaw. Austin Riley also went deep in the first inning, giving the Braves a 3-0 lead before the Yankees could bat.

A Kelenic single handed the Braves another run in the second. Ramón Laureano followed up with an RBI double in the third.
