 DENVER (AP) - Todd Greene hit a game-winning, bases-loaded single in the bottom of the ninth after Atlanta had scored three runs in the top half of the inning, giving the Colorado Rockies a 6-5 victory over the Braves on Wednesday.
Colorado got an impressive start from Byung-Hyun Kim and led 4-2 heading into the ninth, only to see Chin-hui Tsao (1-0) blow the save. The rookie closer was successful in his first four save opportunities, but clearly didn't have his best stuff against the Braves.
Ryan Langerhans led off the ninth with a solo homer, then Rafael Furcal hit a two-out bloop single to center. Brian Giles tied it with a run-scoring double off the wall in right, then Julio Franco lined a single to right to put the Braves up 5-4.
