ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Braves have new incentive to take care of business in the National League East as quickly as possible.
The Braves don't want their playoff status to be determined by a makeup game against a Colorado Rockies team which has been tough to beat at Truist Park.
The Rockies-Braves game was postponed on Thursday due to a soggy field caused by rain. A makeup date was not immediately announced, but it's possible the game could be played on Oct. 4, the day after the final scheduled game of the regular season.
The Rockies won the first two games of the series and are 10-2 at Truist Park since the stadium opened in 2017.
