Rockies beat the Braves 6-3 and get a rare series win in Atlanta

The Rockies rode some late offense to win the game and the series against the Atlanta Braves. Tonight they scored four in the seventh against Shelby Miller and tacked on two more in the eighth--courtesy of a Brandon Barnes home run--to win 6-3. Some gutsy work by the bullpen preserved the victory.

Yohan Flande was solid through five innings, allowing just one run. But back to back home runs by Jonny Gomes and Adonis Garcia put the Rockies down 3-0 in the sixth. Flande was pulled and it felt like the game was done. However, that wasn't the case.
