  "account": "ATLANTA (AP) — Michael Harris II delivered a crucial two-out, two-run double in the eighth inning, propelling the Atlanta Braves to a 2-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies. This win marks the team's sixth consecutive triumph, solidifying their position as National League East leaders. Brent Suter entered the game as a reliever and secured his first victory since trading to the Braves. Rookie Didier Fuentes finished strong with a save, allowing only two baserunners in the ninth inning. Matt Olson and Mauricio Dubón contributed to the scoring, with Olson advancing from second and Dubón from first base. The Rockies, who entered the game with an MLB-worst 5.54 team ERA, came close to achieving their second shutout of the season, with Connor Norby batting 2 for 3. The game faced delays due to rain and a foul ball incident involving home plate umpire Ron Kulpa. In the upcoming game, Braves right-handed pitcher Tyler Mahle will take on Rockies right-handed pitcher Mason Adams.",
