First Inning


The game began with a promising start for the Braves as they managed to score early. The first inning saw Atlanta taking advantage of their opportunities with two hits leading to one run. Meanwhile, the Rockies struggled to find their rhythm offensively and were unable to register any hits or runs in response.


Second Inning


The second inning was pivotal for Atlanta as they extended their lead by scoring two more runs on two hits. The Rox's defense faltered slightly but managed not to allow further damage beyond this point. Colorado's offense continued its struggle against Atlanta's pitching staff, failing again to make an impact on the scoreboard.


Third and Fourth Innings


Both teams settled into a defensive groove during these innings. The Bravos couldn't add any more runs despite having some chances, while Colorado finally registered its first hit of the game in the third inning but remained scoreless through both frames.


Fifth Inning


In this inning, Atlanta added another run due partly due to an error from Colorado’s side which contributed significantly towards maintaining their lead at 4-0 by end-of-inning five; however no additional hits were recorded from either team during these moments making it seem like momentum might shift soon enough if given chance!
