Eighth-inning rally sends Braves past Red Sox

Marcel Ozuna lined a single up the middle to score the go-ahead run in the eighth inning as the Atlanta Braves beat the visiting Boston Red Sox 4-2 on Tuesday to end a three-game losing streak. The Braves, who had scored only 20 runs over their previous eight games, added an insurance run in the eighth on Orlando Arcia's infield grounder. The winning pitcher was Joe Jimenez (1-0), who pitched a scoreless eighth inning.
