Rockies Off to a Flying Start! 
What a way to kick off the game in Coors Field! Our boys came out swinging, with Jordan Beck doubling to center, setting the stage for a massive home run by Hunter Goodman that sent the Rockies fans into a frenzied celebration! 
Goodman's 402-foot blast to left was a beauty, bringing home Beck and Ryan McMahon to put us up 3-0 early on. You couldn't ask for a better start! The atmosphere was electric, and the Rockies took an assertive lead right from the get-go. Go Rockies! 
Braves Level the Playing Field 
Though we were off to a flying start, the Braves had a few tricks up their sleeves. In the third inning, they managed to claw back with a couple of runs courtesy of Alex Verdugo and a sacrifice fly from Marcell Ozuna. By the fourth inning, they evened the score to 3-3. Juan Mejia had a solid start, but those Braves capitalized on their opportunities. Our defense was put to the test as the Braves found ways to get runners on base. It's always intense when scores are tied like this! 
Braves Surge as Rockies Battle On 
Round about the 5th inning, the Braves managed to pull ahead. A key double from Michael Harris II brought in two runs, shifting the advantage in their favor to 5-3. Ryan Feltner, although relieved later on, gave it his all. But the Rockies didn't stop battling — Jon Bird came in strong out of the pen, holding the Braves where they stood. Despite a gallant effort to close the gap in the 6th and 8th innings, the Braves' pitching staff proved to be relentless. Our hearts sank a bit as Sean Murphy added another run for the Braves in the 7th. Rockies Fight Till the End! 
The tension in Coors Field was palpable as the game headed into its final innings. While the 9th inning saw a valiant effort by Adael Amador with a crucial double, our bats couldn't quite complete the comeback. It was a great hustle, and our team never gave up, although we were halted at 3-6 by the Braves. All credit to the boys who played hard till the very end! A special shoutout to all the Rockies fans who stuck by us through thick and thin! It's a long season, and we've got the spirit to keep pushing forward together! We'll get them next time, Rockies faithful!
