Odorizzi's strong effort not enough

Odorizzi surrendered two runs over six innings, marking just the fourth time in nine starts that he has allowed more than one run. The right-hander gained an early lead on James Loney's first-inning sacrifice fly.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Perez's escapes: After the Rays used a walk and a pair of singles to load the bases in the fourth inning, Perez used his two-seam sinker to get Asdrubal Cabrera to ground into a threat-averting double play. The Braves right-hander also used three strikeouts to pitch around the two singles he surrendered in the fifth inning.
