Alex Cora, Kevin Plawecki ejected as Red Sox walked off again in painful loss to Braves

Another night, and yet another gut-punching loss for the Red Sox.

With a chance to finally win a series, the Red Sox lost in crushing fashion yet again. Orlando Arcia hit a tie-breaking, two-run walk-off homer in the ninth off Ryan Brasier to send the Red Sox to a brutal 5-3 loss at Truist Park in Atlanta on Wednesday night as they split the two-game series with the Braves.

The Red Sox (11-20) now have not won a series in a month, a stretch of eight consecutive series without a victory as they fell 11 1/2 games back of the first-place Yankees. It was their fifth walk-off loss of the season on a growing list of excruciating defeats that’s almost become too many to count.
