Colorado Rockies drop third straight in road loss at Atlanta Braves

Jun. 16—Atlanta Braves 8, Colorado Rockies 1

What happened: The Rockies dropped their second game to Atlanta, and third overall, in a result that almost mirrored their previous loss to the Braves. Colorado starting pitching woes plus lackluster offense meant another lopsided defeat. The Rockies are now 29-43 with two more games still to play in Atlanta.

At the plate: The Rockies totaled seven hits but were 1-of-5 with runners in scoring position. Their lone run arrived in the sixth inning when Jurickson Profar doubled, Ezequiel Tovar singled and a Randal Grichuk fielder's choice groundout brought home Profar.
