Getting your player ready...

At 36, Kevin Millwood is trying to resurrect his career with the Rockies, who will need a veteran arm in their 2012 rotation. Question is, is Coors Field a good fit for Millwood, a flyball pitcher who served up a career-high 30 home runs in 190-plus innings last season with the Orioles? Millwood pitched well Monday night but was tagged for two homers, giving him five in two starts with the Rockies.

Glove story.

Troy Tulowitzki hit a two-run homer and had another flawless night in the field. No surprise there. Tulo has gone 41 consecutive games since his last error on June 26 at Yankee Stadium. His career longest errorless streak is 45 — May 18-July 8, 2007.

Milestone for McKeon.

One night after squaring off against Tony La Russa, he of the 2,703 managerial wins, the Rockies faced Jack McKeon, who was managing in his 2,000th game.
