RIO DE JANEIRO -- Like many of the golfers who came to Brazil to participate in the Olympic golf Tournament, Justin Rose has taken time to soak in the experience.Typically its all business at golf tournaments, but Rose has found that enjoying the atmosphere and meeting others from the Great Britain Olympic scene has been a benefit.Its what everyone is here for, said Rose, whose 69 on Friday during the second round left him tied for fourth, 4 shots off the lead held by Australias Marcus Fraser.In the wider Team GB, its what everyone trains for, Rose said. Its what they expect. I think its the kind of event that obviously theres three places that are worth shooting for, and then theres kind of you are there to compete as an Olympian.At the end of the day, theres a pretty finite goal this week. Its either achieve or you dont. Saying that, youre going to come out of this week with a memory that will last a lifetime. If you dont come away with a medal, I think youre still going to look back fondly on the experience.Obviously as a competitor, youre gunning for the top.Rose has given himself that chance this weekend at the Olympic Golf Course after rounds of 67 and 69. Ranked 12th in the world, hes gone through a bit of a slow stretch following a back injury that kept him out between the Players Championship and the U.S. Open.Since returning, Rose has not cracked the top 10 in any event, playing just the three major championships and the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational.Yet he has gradually returned to form and sees no reason why he cant make a run, despite not being at his best for the first; two days.They certainly dont give anything out today, so all you can do is put yourself behind with an uphill struggle, but I feel like I havent done that, Rose said. I feel like Im in a good position going into the weekend. I feel like I have another gear or two to try and find, and it would be nice if it all clicked into shape when you need it.

DENVER -- Mike Foltynewicz learned a big lesson -- dont give Carlos Gonzalez anything to hit.Ever.The smooth-swinging slugger hit a three-run homer to break a scoreless tie in the sixth inning, sending the Colorado Rockies to a 7-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Thursday night.You cant fall behind one of the best fastball hitters in the game, Foltynewicz said. He was waiting on the inside fastball and he turned on it.Did Gonzalez ever. He cant remember hitting a ball any better or louder.Just a sweet sound coming off the bat, he said.Foltynewicz (3-4) was both electric and erratic in 5 2/3 innings. He didnt allow a hit until DJ LeMahieus leadoff single in the fourth and struck out five. He walked five.Of course, his most costly mistake was a 97 mph fastball that Gonzalez hit over the fence in right-center.That guys scary on both sides of the ball, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said. You make a mistake to him, hes going to make you pay.It was Gonzalezs 20th homer of the season and first since participating in the All-Star Home Run Derby.I knew I was going to get one pitch the whole night. That was it, Gonzalez said. Im glad I didnt miss it.Chad Bettis (8-6) was in command all night thanks to his curveball. The right-hander allowed one run over 6 2/3 innings. He was cruising through Atlantas lineup until hitting a bump in the seventh when he gave up an RBI double to A.J. Pierzynski.I really liked the way he used his curveball, Rockies manager Walt Weiss explained. Got a lot of strikes and outs with it.Trailing 7-1 in the ninth, the Braves scored twice before the Rockies brought in closer Carlos Estevez with two outs. He got Jace Peterson to roll out to end the game and earn his seventh save.The Rockies have won seven straight over Atlanta at Coors Field.Pinch-hitter Mark Reynolds added some insurance with a solo homer in the seventh thatt went an estimated 484 feet.dddddddddddd It was his first pinch-hit homer in two years.He got it good, Weiss said. Pinch-hit homers are nice.There was a crazy play in the eighth with runners on second and third. On a single by Nick Hundley, Trevor Story scored easily but Daniel Descalso nearly collided with shortstop Erick Aybar as Descalso took off from second. Descalso was thrown out at the plate, but Aybar was called for obstruction. Hundley was credited with one RBI and Aybar was given an error.Pierzynski was ejected on the play by home plate umpire Mike Winters for what the catcher said was kicking the ball toward the Rockies dugout.We needed a new ball. Ive done that 100 times over my career, Pierzynski explained. I wasnt looking at him. I didnt say anything to him.I apologized. Maybe I should have bent over and picked it up and rolled it over there.Anthony Recker replaced him and had an RBI double in the ninth, part of a two-run inning off Rockies reliever Jason Motte.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: OF Mallex Smith (broken left thumb) is swinging one-handed and doing some throwing. ... RHP Daniel Winkler (broken right elbow) isnt close to heading out for a rehab assignment, Snitker said. Winkler is still going through long toss.CONTACTOF Nick Markakis went 32 straight plate appearances without swinging at a pitch and missing. That ended in the ninth when he swung at strike three. He finished 1 for 3.He has such a great eye at the plate, Snitker said. Hes one of the most disciplined hitters that Ive seen.UP NEXTThis certainly looks familiar: Jon Gray (5-4) and Julio Teheran (3-8) will face each other Friday night -- the second time in a week. The starters didnt figure into the decision during a 1-0 Atlanta win last Sunday.
