The Colorado Rockies snapped an eight-game losing streak with a hard-fought 2-1 victory against the Atlanta Braves. Brenton Doyle delivered a crucial tiebreaking home run off Chris Sale, which not only ended his own 0-for-20 slump but also marked a significant moment for the Rockies, who had lost 16 of their previous 17 games. Rookie pitcher Chase Dollander earned his second win despite dealing with a cracked fingernail, and the Colorado bullpen held strong to secure the victory, with Zach Agnos recording his first major league save.

Key moments included a striking performance from Rockies relievers, who prevented Atlanta from capitalizing on scoring opportunities. Despite the loss, Sale struck out ten batters, showcasing his resilience as the Braves eyed a chance to extend their winning streak. The Braves will look to bounce back against the Los Angeles Dodgers, while the Rockies aim to build momentum against the San Francisco Giants.
