Snow and freezing temperatures have moved this game out a day. But given the late scheduling time, it's still going to be very cold (around 40 degrees). The Rockies head home after getting the game they wanted and erasing the Phillies home-field advantage. The series is now a best of three with the next two in Colorado. The Phils switched from Pedro Martinez to J.A. Happ while Colorado is sticking with Jason Hammel. Hammel began the season in the pen and struggled in his transition to becoming a starter as the Rockies dropped four of his first five starts. The Rockies have since gone 17-9 in his last 26 starts and that includes a stellar 10-2 mark at home. The Rockies are 23-13 this season when playing teams at .540 to .620 and they are 55-36 following a win. They also have a winning record this season as an underdog and over the past three seasons the Rockies are 27-18 as a home underdog. I like Colorado and Hammel here.
