ATLANTA – After nicking Clayton Kershaw for 10 hits, the Braves were feeling pretty good about themselves.
Unfortunately for Atlanta, a familiar outcome followed.
Yasmani Grandal drove home the go-ahead run with a 10th-inning double, and the Los Angeles Dodgers pulled out a 2-1 victory over the Braves on Thursday, even though Kershaw clearly didn’t have his best stuff.
Atlanta slipped to 4-11 after its second straight extra-inning loss to the Dodgers.
“We were going after it pretty good,” said Drew Stubbs, who had two of the hits off Kershaw. “Unfortunately we couldn’t push across more than one run.”
