00:00The Braves failing to make up any ground this weekend. They

00:06lose their weekend set in cores against the Rockies and

00:10Colorado takes the rubber match and the series despite

00:13trailing eight to two entering the eighth inning. The Braves

00:17were up by six runs into the bottom of the eighth. The Rocks

00:20score seven in that home half of the frame to come all the way

00:25back and pick up a victory in the rubber match and pick up a

00:28series weekend victory as well. Nine to eight in the finale.

00:33Yeah. Schwellenbach starts that game. Six innings pitch, two

00:35earned runs. That should be an easy victory for him. You're

00:38even tacking on late only to see the bullpen give it away.

00:42Jackson, two-thirds of an innings pitch, four earned

00:44runs. Jimenez comes in a third of an innings pitch. Three

00:47earned runs at that point. A disastrous showing for the

00:50bullpen for the Atlanta Braves giving that game away and we'll

00:53see if there is a lingering effect as they now head out to

00:55the West Coast and take on the San Francisco Giants. Sale will

00:58be on the mountain. So, it's a great way to sort of bounce

01:00back but boy oh boy. Yeah. You expected that to be a victory.

01:03Get some momentum heading out and you take that devastating

01:05loss. There could be something to watch tonight. No doubt

01:08about it. Can't lose those games but as we like to say,

01:10that's Coors Magic right there in full effect.
