Braves' Sixth-Inning Surge

The Braves found their stride momentarily during the sixth inning when they managed to score all three of their runs. This brief offensive burst was highlighted by two hits and capitalized on two errors committed by the Rays during this inning. Despite this effort, it was not enough to overcome Tampa Bay's lead.
