The Atlanta Braves’ only runs in Tuesday night’s 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers came from shortstop Johan Camargo’s two-run home run in the bottom of the eighth.

With his third home run of the season, Camargo scored second baseman Ozzie Albies, who made his major league debut on Tuesday along with pitcher Lucas Sims.

The Braves continue the three-game series against the Dodgers on Wednesday night at 7:35 p.m. from SunTrust Park.
