Jim Tracy tinkered with his lineup yesterday. It looks even better today. Ubaldo Jimenez and Cliff Lee are your starters in this tilt. The Phils are up two games to none, and the winner will face Los Dodgers. It's Angels Yankees for the ALCS.Can't believe it let me do that.

Monday Evening Liveglog Club: Phillies @ Rockies, NLDS Game 4
Cliff Lee and Ubaldo Jimenez match wits in a "win or stay home" game for the Rockies. Imagine that, trying your hardest to win a game for the chance to get on a plane and fly to Philadelphia.
