It was another rough day on the mound for Bartolo Colon, as the Braves eventually lost 9-4 to the Pirates to split the four-game series. Five of Pittsburgh’s runs came in the second inning, which was capped off by a three-run dinger from Adam Frazier that made it 5-0 at that point. Things only got worse from there, and Ivan Nova came two outs away from getting a complete game — despite the fact that the Braves did manage to get four earned runs at his expense.
Josh Collmenter had an absolute disaster of a relief appearance on Wednesday night against the Pirates.
