The Colorado Rockies’ struggles continued on Tuesday night as they fell 8-2 to the Atlanta Braves at Coors Field, marking their eighth consecutive loss and dropping their record to a league-worst 4-25.​

Rockies starter Germán Márquez (0-5) endured another tough outing, surrendering seven runs over 5.2 innings, including a pivotal two-run single by Nick Allen in the fourth inning that extended Atlanta’s lead to 5-1. The Braves’ offense was relentless, amassing 14 hits. Michael Harris II contributed with a two-run double in the second inning, while Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley each added RBI singles in the fifth and sixth innings, respectively. ​

On the mound, Braves’ right-hander A.J. Smith-Shawver (1-2) delivered a solid performance, allowing two runs over 5.1 innings and striking out five. The Rockies’ offense was limited to six hits, with Michael Toglia providing a highlight with a solo home run in the second inning. ​

With this loss, the Rockies have now dropped 16 of their last 17 games, underscoring the team’s ongoing challenges this season. The Braves, improving to 14-15, have won nine of their last 11 games, showcasing a resurgence after a slow start to the season. ​
