After winning the first two games against the Philadelphia Phillies in style, the Colorado Rockies dropped game three 6-1 largely due to one bad inning. Today’s the rubber match, where the Rockies can spoil some of the Phillies’ playoff hopes and swipe a series win on the road as a favor to the other National League Wild Card teams.
Starting for the Rockies is rookie Ryan Feltner for his second big league game after debuting against the Braves a week ago. The 25-year old righty had a tough time against Atlanta, giving up a home run on his first major league pitch and surrendering six earned runs over 2 2⁄3 innings.
