Braves snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in 6-5 loss to Tigers

Despite spending most of the game in clear control of this one, a bad outing from Raisel Iglesias in the ninth inning and some bad defense in the tenth inning helped contribute to the Atlanta Braves coughing up a four-run lead on their way to a stunning loss at the hands of the Detroit Tigers.

While the Braves didn't harness any of that first-inning magic that we're used to seeing from them, we didn't have to wait long for the road team to get on the board after that. Marcell Ozuna led off the second inning with a double and after two fly balls from Eddie Rosario and Ozzie Albies, Ozuna was able to scamper home and put the Braves on the board first via the sacrifice fly.
