The Rockies come to Philadelphia to begin a series on Friday night against the Phillies. Colorado lost three of four games in Atlanta in their last series after scoring just 7 total runs. Now they will have to contend with Cliff Lee who has allowed 4 runs and 21 hits in his last three starts coming against the Braves, Reds, and Nationals. He gave up 3 runs and nine hits in six innings back in July against the Rockies, but that game was at Coors Field. Tyler Colvin (2-10) and Ramon Hernandez (3-12) have had their struggles against the southpaw. Colorado is 13-25 against left-handed starters and they are hitting right around .240 on the road as a unit.

Jeff Francis is 5-4 with a 5.73 ERA in 18 starts for the Rockies. He is coming off a 6-run and 10- hit effort at home against the Padres. Francis got a no-decision in Philadelphia earlier this season, but that was against a limited lineup. Overall, he is 2-1 with a 5.55 ERA in seven career starts against the Phillies. Kevin Frandsen (3-9), Juan Pierre (18-42), Jimmy Rollins (7-15) and Nate Schierholtz (2-3) have good numbers against the Rockies? starter. Philadelphia has won five of their last seven games while scoring nearly 5 runs per game in the process. Colorado has lost seven of their last nine games in Philadelphia including two of three games this season. We expect the Phillies to win this game rather easily so we?ll lay the runs against the Rockies on Friday night.
