"Ozzie Albies singled in the go-ahead run with two outs in the eighth inning and the Atlanta Braves defeated Los Angles 4-3 on Tuesday night, snapping the Dodgers' six-game winning streak in a matchup of first-place clubs. After the Braves squandered an early 3-0 lead against Tyler Glasnow, who made his first big league start in 3 1/2 months, Matt Olson led off the eighth with a double to left-center against Tanner Scott (1-4). Mauricio Dubón moved the runner to third with a broken-bat grounder to second, but Michael Harris II failed to get Olson home with a weak grounder back to the mound.
