#901 ASA FREE PLAY ON Run Line: Colorado Rockies +1.5 runs (-130) over Atlanta Braves, Thursday at 12:20 PM ET -  The Braves have been feeling the pressure of trying to hang onto the top spot in the NL East for quite some time now.  Atlanta has lost 4 of its last 5 games against Colorado after falling short again to the Rockies.  Last night's defeat was in extra innings and this is another very tough match-up for the Braves early Thursday in this one.  The pitching match-up helps the Rockies here as German Marquez has a 3.18 ERA in his last 3 starts plus allowed just 2 earned runs in 7 innings in his last visit to Atlanta.  Best way to play the underdog is with the run line in this one.  That's because if you look at Atlanta's last 22 games only 6 of the 22 games were Braves wins by more than a margin of a single run.  Another tight battle expected here as Ian Anderson lost to Marquez less than 2 weeks ago in Colorado and this looks like another tough spot for him.  5 of the last 6 games between these NL foes have been decided by just a single run!  That being said, a lot of value here with the road team and this is particularly true on the run line.  Bet the Colorado Rockies +1.5 runs on the run line.
