Well here we go, one game from elimination as we couldn't come through with the big hit over the final 3 innings. They loaded the bases in the 7th with 2 out and Ozzie Albies grounded out; Randy Arozarena doubled with 2 out in the 8th but Josh Mears struck out, and Michael Taylor walked in the 9th and stole second with one out but Zach DeLoach and Wander Franco grounded out. Meanwhile the Tigers were able to get key two-out hits as they scored 3 times in the 2nd on a pair of them off McClanahan. Mears snapped out of his slump to deliver a 2-run homer but his and Taylor's weren't enough. Now it's up to Drew Rasmussen tomorrow to try and force a Game 3.
