Two Rockies pitchers — starter Ryan Feltner and reliever Julian Fernandez — made their big-league debuts Sunday afternoon at Coors Field.
The duo’s debut was, well, rocky.
The Atlanta Braves took full advantage, hitting four home runs and cruising to a 9-2 victory to earn a spit of the four-game series.
Charlie Morton, the Braves’ veteran right-hander, provided Colorado’s young duo with a template on how to pitch. Martin, 37, allowed just two runs on just two hits in seven innings as he improved to 13-5.
The very first pitch of Feltner’s career — a 91.
