Atlanta Braves vs. Colorado Rockies - News - June 04, 2022 | FOX Sports

Brian Serven - Delivers two-run homer Serven went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Atlanta.

Impact Serven continues to make the most of his limited playing time -- he's logged multiple hits in two of his last three starts behind the dish. The 27-year-old catcher went yard in the eighth inning Sunday, nearly sparking a comeback effort for the Rockies in the close loss. He's hitting .303 with a .919 OPS, three homers, nine RBI and four runs scored in 35 plate appearances.

Charlie Blackmon - Launches eighth homer Blackmon went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 8-7 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Blackmon brought the Rockies within a run with his ninth-inning solo shot, but the comeback effort fell short. This was his first extra-base hit since his last homer May 29 versus the Nationals. The outfielder is still struggling at the plate with a .244/.308/.415 slash line in 215 plate appearances this season, but he's gone 6-for-19 (.316) over his last four games. The 35-year-old has added eight homers, 26 RBI, 25 runs scored, a stolen base, seven doubles and a triple through 48 contests.

Brendan Rodgers - Strong showing in loss Rodgers went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and two total runs scored in Sunday's 8-7 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Rodgers delivered a two-run double in the first inning and a solo shot in the fifth, both off Atlanta starter Charlie Morton. This was Rodgers' second three-hit game in June after a three-homer effort in the nightcap of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Marlins. The infielder is up to a .266/.316/.428 slash line with six homers, 26 RBI, 28 runs scored and 10 doubles through 187 plate appearances overall.

Sam Hilliard - Comes up empty in return Hilliard (head) went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in Sunday's 8-7 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Hilliard missed four games after making a diving catch Wednesday that sent him into the concussion protocol. He didn't do well in his return, and he's now 0-for-9 across his last three games. The 28-year-old is slashing .178/.261/.297 with two home runs, 12 RBI, 12 runs scored and a pair of stolen bases in 115 plate appearances, so he shouldn't be expected to see much more than the strong side of a platoon with Yonathan Daza in left field now that he's healthy.

Matt Olson - Pummels three-run home run Olson went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 8-7 win over the Rockies.

Impact Olson took advantage of the altitude, taking Rockies starter Ryan Feltner deep to center field in the second inning. While he's just 4-for-18 in his last four games, Olson has driven in six runs in that span. The first baseman is slashing .255/.363/.466 with seven homers, 28 RBI, 22 runs scored and 23 doubles through 55 contests. His .211 ISO is the lowest it's been since 2018, but he's likely been a little unlucky to see some hits fall for doubles with a 45 percent hard-hit rate that's not so far off from his 49.2 percent career mark in the category.

Kenley Jansen - Shaky in 14th save Jansen allowed a run on two hits and struck out one in one inning to earn the save in Sunday's 8-7 win over the Rockies.

Impact For his third straight outing and the sixth time in his last eight, Jansen surrendered a run, with Charlie Blackmon doing the damage on a solo home run this time. During that rough span, Jansen is 5-for-8 in save chances, accounting for all three of his blown saves on the season. He owns a 3.80 ERA, 1.01 WHIP And 33:8 K:BB through 23.2 innings with 14 saves on his ledger, ranking fifth in the majors.

Ronald Acuña Jr. - Big game in series finale Acuna went 4-for-5 with a solo home run, a stolen base and three total runs scored in Sunday's 8-7 win over the Rockies.

Impact Through four games in June, Acuna has three multi-hit efforts, going 8-for-18 (.444) in that span. His first three hits were singles, but his fourth one was an important solo shot in the eighth, which provided Atlanta with just enough insurance to get the win. The 24-year-old superstar owns an excellent .313/.408/.475 slash line with three homers, 10 steals, 13 RBI and 18 runs scored through 26 contests this year.
