Molly Fastball: Feltner’s ERA Is Louder Than The Rockies’ Batting Average Gimmick
It is 4:10 PM EDT at Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia, where the Rockies are hauling their 25-44 road record into regular season play against a Braves squad operating on 79-55. Colorado is hanging its hat on a batting average of .252 to undercut Atlanta’s .247, which is a cute stat trick for a team whose 5.53 team ERA suggests their pitchers are running a local free-knock event. You can watch the spectacle unfold on MLB.TV, BravesVision, or Rockies.TV, but the numbers are already doing the heavy lifting in the Braves’ favor.
