The Colorado Rockies broke an eight-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory against the Atlanta Braves, marking only their fifth win of the season. Rookie pitcher Chase Dollander, the Rockies' first-round draft pick, delivered an impressive performance, limiting the Braves to just one run. The win was a much-needed boost for the team, which has struggled significantly this season, sitting at 5-25 and close to a historical low start. Brenton Doyle provided the winning hit with a tiebreaking home run in the third inning, while Ryan McMahon extended his record hitless streak to 34 at-bats.

Manager Bud Black acknowledged the frustration within the team but emphasized the need for collective improvement from all players. Dollander's performance against last year's Cy Young winner, Chris Sale, serves as a promising sign for the Rockies, who are aiming to regain their competitive edge. The Rockies hope to build on this win and shake off the difficult start to the season.
