Rox drop Braves on blasts from CarGo, Reynolds

Gonzalez's 20th homer this season backed starter Chad Bettis, who held the Braves to one run and four hits in 6 2/3 innings and fanned four while helping the Rockies improve to 4-3 since the All-Star break. The only run off Bettis came on A.J. Pierzynski's one-out, RBI double in the seventh. But with Pierzynski at third, reliever Adam Ottavino struck out pinch-hitter Brandon Snyder, and Reynolds opened the seventh with his 10th homer of the year -- a 484-foot shot that was the second-longest in the Majors this year, according to Statcast™.
