As it turns out, the wearin’ of the green was not the Rockies’ lucky charm.
Sporting their green-and-white, Colorado-license-plate-inspired City Connect uniforms for the first time, the Rockies lost 6-2 to the Braves in 11 innings Saturday night at Coors Field.
The Braves ambushed veteran right-hander Jhoulys Chacin for four runs on three hits. Marcell Ozuna crushed an RBI double to center, William Contreras ripped an RBI double down the left-field line, and Adam Duvall put the game to bed with a two-run homer to left.
Chacin, who’s getting less and less time on the mound, now has a 7.
