Braves Try to Keep Home Win Streak Alive, Host the Rockies

Atlanta brings a 45-23 home record into the opener, while Colorado arrives 52-82 and lists Tomoyuki Sugano and Grant Holmes as the probable starters.

  • On Friday, the Atlanta Braves opened a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies at home, seeking to extend their winning streak to five games following a sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
  • The Braves lead the season series 4-0, entering the matchup with a 79-55 record, while Colorado sits fifth in the NL West with a 52-82 record after struggling on the road.
  • Right-Hander Grant Holmes, who took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning last Thursday, faces Rockies starter Tomoyuki Sugano, who surrendered 11 earned runs over his last two outings.
  • Rockies Manager Warren Schaeffer remains optimistic despite the team's record, stating, "We like our team, but we have 52 wins," while emphasizing long-term improvement.
  • The teams meet again Saturday with Martin Perez starting for Atlanta against Ryan Feltner, as the Braves rely on an offense ranking seventh in MLB with 171 home runs.
