If this isn’t rock bottom it has to be close to it. Things have gone from bad to worse for the Atlanta Braves, who again fell to the Boston Red Sox 10-8 after the bullpen was unable to protect a late lead. While the bullpen is firmly in the crosshairs, it was the second straight game that Atlanta’s starter failed to make it past four innings. Tucker Davidson left Tuesday’s game in the third with a left forearm strain and Ian Anderson piled up 87 pitches while allowing seven hits and four runs in just four innings Wednesday, though he did suffer some bad luck as well.
