Getting your player ready...
Consider the lineup the fast and the curious. Manager Jim Tracy wanted more speed at the top when he put Eric Young Jr., Dexter Fowler and Carlos Gonzalez in the top three spots. He was rewarded with two stolen bases in the first inning. The Rockies have been successful on 12 of their last 14 attempts after starting the season 3-for-9.
Moving Molina.
Giants catcher Bengie Molina, after hitting sixth most of the season, moved to cleanup for only the second time. Molina has batted nearly .500 at home this season, compared with .192 on the road.
More Mora.
With Ian Stewart in a 4-for-20 slump, Melvin Mora started at third base for only the second time this season. Mora had eight hits in his previous five starts.
