ATLANTA — – Ozzie Albies<\/a> singled in the go-ahead run with two outs in the eighth inning and the Atlanta Braves<\/a> defeated Los Angles 4-3 on Tuesday night, snapping the Dodgers’ six-game winning streak in a matchup of first-place clubs.<\/p>\n

After the Braves squandered an early 3-0 lead against Tyler Glasnow<\/a>, who made his first big league start in 3 1\/2 months, Matt Olson<\/a> led off the eighth with a double to left-center against Tanner Scott<\/a> (1-4).<\/p>\n

Mauricio Dub\u00f3n moved the runner to third with a broken-bat grounder to second, but Michael Harris II<\/a> failed to get Olson home with a weak grounder back to the mound. That left it up to Albies, who came through with a liner to center field.<\/p>\n

Shohei Ohtani<\/a> tripled off the left-field wall leading off the ninth against Raisel Iglesias<\/a>, but the Dodgers couldn’t get him home. Iglesias earned his 28th save in 31 chances.<\/p>\n

Glasnow gave up hits to four of the first five Atlanta hitters, but the right-hander surrendered just two more during his five-inning stint. He struck out seven and didn’t walk anyone while throwing 89 pitches.<\/p>\n

Glasnow had been sidelined by a lower back injury<\/a> since May 6.<\/p>\n

The Braves came into the game with an offense that had struggled mightily during a 3-7 skid that reduced their NL East lead over Philadelphia from nine games to just three.<\/p>\n

But Atlanta jumped on Glasnow right away, getting run-scoring singles from Dub\u00f3n<\/a> and Harris<\/a>. Albies tacked on his 13th sacrifice fly of the season<\/a> to set a franchise record, breaking the mark he shared with Hank Aaron and Del Crandall, who both had a dozen sac flies in 1960.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers wasted no time bouncing back against Bryce Elder<\/a>. Alek Thomas<\/a> and Hunter Feduccia<\/a> came through in the second with two-out, run-scoring singles and Alex Call<\/a>‘s RBI single tied it at 3 in the fourth.<\/p>\n

Dylan Dodd<\/a> (4-1) claimed the win by getting the final Dodgers out in the eighth.<\/p>\n

Up next<\/p>\n

RHP Roki Sasaki<\/a> (5-5, 4.42 ERA) goes for the Dodgers on Wednesday in the second game of the series against Braves RHP AJ Smith-Shawver<\/a> (0-0, 6.23), who is making his third big league start of the season and first of his career against Los Angeles.<\/p>\n
