Braves vie for season sweep of Rockies

Sometimes a team has your number. The Colorado Rockies certainly understand that when they face the Atlanta Braves.

Colorado has lost all six games between the teams this season, eight straight overall and 12 of the past 13. The Rockies get one more chance to break through when they host Atlanta on Wednesday night to wrap up a three-game series.

Colorado will send lefty Kyle Freeland (5-13, 5.00 ERA) to the mound while the Braves will counter with Darius Vines, who will make his major league debut.

Freeland has had a forgettable season but has taken the ball when it is his turn.
