Another Coors Field defeat for the Braves, who were not able to convert two late rallies into a victory. Julio Teheran pitched four scoreless innings before departing with tightness in his lat.
So, Coors Field is becoming yet another NL West house of horrors for the Braves, isn't it? After last year's seasonal turning point (in some senses) that involved a gruesome injury to Jason Grilli, the Braves have just completely reeled in Colorado, and tonight's defeat marks eight straight losses for them in Denver.
The game actually started off very auspiciously: Freddie Freeman hit a two-out triple thanks to a really-good-play-that-instead-turned-into-a-dropped-ball by left fielder Ryan Raburn.
