Braves can’t overcome bad pitching in 7-6 loss to Rockies

The Braves lost yet another one-run game on Saturday night in Denver, giving them four one-run losses (and one one-run win) in their last five games. This time, though, the one-run nature of the defeat was more due to some late runs scored by the Braves, as the pitching really made this contest a tough one to win for the visitors.

Ian Anderson made his second start after spending some time on the shelf with a shoulder injury, and looked terrible, hardly like himself, throughout. His first start back was an odd one, with a 3/0 K/BB ratio but no runs allowed, and both of those went far more poorly against the Rockies.
