Overview

  • Michael Harris II tied the game in the sixth with his sixth homer of the season and Marcell Ozuna followed with an 11th-inning blast in the seventh to put the Braves ahead.
  • Atlanta’s bullpen stifled the Rockies over the final 5⅔ innings as Enyel De Los Santos earned the win and Raisel Iglesias and Dylan Lee combined on scoreless frames.
  • German Marquez delivered five strong innings with seven strikeouts but surrendered the key sixth-inning homer, while Ryan McMahon went 3-for-4 with a double, a homer and three RBIs for Colorado.
  • Colorado’s defense faltered in the eighth, committing three errors that fueled a five-run inning and sealed the lopsided result.
  • The win gives Atlanta a 1-0 series advantage and extends its season lead to 3-1 over Colorado as Spencer Strider gears up to start Saturday’s rematch against Chase Dollander.
