The Braves and Rockies have not faced off against each other in Colorado since July 12 of last season, when the Rockies were victorious by a score of 11-3. In fact, the Rockies have won each of the last six games against the Braves at Coors Field.

Atlanta dropped the rubber match of a three-game set on Wednesday, falling to the Reds in Cincinnati, 6-3. The Braves have only won one just one of their last eight series, dating back to exactly one month ago on June 21.

The Rockies lost at home to the Rays in their last game, 11-3, while striking out 15 times. It marked the third time this season that Colorado has struck out at least 15 times in a nine-inning game, which is tied for the most in the NL (Baltimore and Tampa Bay have each done it four times in the AL).

Mike Foltynewicz also faced the Rockies in his last start (although at home), throwing seven innings while allowing three runs on just four hits en route to a no-decision. He now faces them on the road, where his ERA this season (4.61 ERA away from Turner Field) pales in comparison to his home mark (2.83).

Chad Bettis and Mike Foltynewicz dueled in their last starts, with Bettis going 6.2 innings and surrendering three runs. In 2016, Bettis has a 3.38 ERA against NL East teams, and an ERA over 5.00 against every other division (cumulative 5.85 ERA vs. non-NL East teams).

Nolan Arenado did not record an RBI in his last game, marking the fifth consecutive game in which he has failed to do so. This current five-game streak is the longest drought of the season that Arenado has gone without an RBI. On the season, Arenado is tied (with Anthony Rizzo) for the league lead with 71 runs batted in.

HP - Muchlinski, 1B - Winters, 2B - Foster, 3B - Wegner

DENVER -- Breaking into the big leagues is a challenge in itself. For Atlanta Braves pitcher Tyrell Jenkins, who will make his third career start on Sunday, scheduling has compounded the task.
Jenkins has pitched in two of the best hittters' ballparks in the National League and is about to take the mound in a third.

Braves-Rockies preview

DENVER (AP)  Starting pitchers aren't supposed to have stat lines quite like this - winning ones, anyway. Rookie shortstops aren't supposed to make it look this easy for an entire series.
Just that kind of weekend for Colorado.
