PHILADELPHIA - Today's baseball action gets started in the same venue that hosted yesterday's postseason opener. Colorado snatched home field advantage in the best-of-5 National League Division Series with a 4-2 win at Philadelphia.
The Phillies send 10-4 Kyle Kendrick to the mound in hopes the rookie can help them even things at a game apiece. The Rockies will go with 3-2 Franklin Morales. The Diamondbacks and Cubs play Game 2 of their NLDS tonight in Arizona, where the home team won last night's opener 3-1. Doug Davis versus Ted Lilly is the pitching matchup. A pair of 19-game winners will toe the rubber tonight in Jacobs Field for Game 1 of the American League Division Series between the Indians and visiting Yankees. The home team is going with C.C. Sabathia while New York hands the ball to Chien-Ming Wang. The wild-card Yanks went 6-0 against the Central Division champs during regular-season play. The junior circuit's other first-round matchup resumes tomorrow in Boston, where the Red Sox blanked the Los Angeles Angels 4-0 last night in Game 1 of their first-round postseason series. |
