Rays pitcher Jake Odorizzi allowed two earned runs in Wednesday night's 2-1 losss against the Braves.
Odorizzi gave up a run each in the third and sixth innings. He went six total innings and gave up four hits, two walks and struck out two batters.
"You feel for him because he's pitched really well all year," Rays manager Kevin Cash said, via MLB.com. "At the same time, he's a pro. He gets it. He just keeps going out there giving us what we need."
This is Odorizzi's third loss in a row, even though he's had strong efforts in each game. His run support has been lacking, however, as the Rays have only scored a combined five runs in his last three starts.
Odorizzi's next start is projected for May 25 against the Mariners.
