Pittsburgh at Colorado

After a couple of decades of struggles, the Pittsburgh Pirates have now clinched what will be their third straight playoffs appearance. It may make things emotionally challenging for this team, taking a breath after the clinching win last night. It might be even more difficult knowing they have beaten the Rockies in three straight, and looking for the four-game sweep. It won't be easy as the Rockies own a home dog winning percentage at Coors Field of better than .500, and in the last dozen years, just one team has been able to sweep them four straight games at home. The Pirates have certainly not been a lock (pardon the pun), behind Locke on the road, where they own just a 4-9 record in his last 13 road starts. Take the home team Rockies.
