Teheran looked like he was on his way to spoiling another solid start by Gray, but he left with tightness in his back while working on a shutout in the fifth inning.
The Rockies took advantage against the Braves' bullpen and took the lead in the sixth when Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story hit two-run homers off Joel De La Cruz and Dario Alvarez, respectively. The Braves made it a one-run game when Jace Peterson hit a two-run homer off Jason Motte in the eighth, but Estevez earned his eighth save despite loading the bases with one out in the ninth.
