Craig Kimbrel earned his first loss of the season while recording only one out, allowing the Red Sox to walk off 4-3 winners against the Braves on Thursday.
Kimbrel put out a two-out, bases-loaded fire in the bottom of the eighth, but the Red Sox weren't done rallying. Kimbrel walked Jackie Bradley, Jr. and Brock Holt to lead off the bottom of the ninth inning. Bradley advanced to third on Xander Bogaerts' infield single and came around to score on third baseman Chris Johnson's throwing error. It's the first time Kimbrel has walked two batters in an outing. He still has 13 saves with a 1.93 ERA with a 36/9 K/BB ratio in 18 2/3 innings.
