The Rockies wear gray undershirts with a hand on the front and the words “Big Mo” on the back. They are a tribute to Melvin Mora, who turns his hand toward his face like a spotlight when he does something well or silly. Mora has been a boost to the lineup, registering 14 hits, including two Saturday, in 12 starts at third base since Ian Stewart landed on the disabled list.
