Game Preview: Eddie Butler will try to crack Philadelphia

The Colorado Rockies desperately need a winning streak after that hellacious 10 game slide; Eddie Butler will try to get one started tonight against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Rockies haven't won two games in a row since April 23-24.

Butler got roughed up in his last start against the Dodgers, going just 2 2/3 innings. If he can harness his command he could be the fifth straight Rockie to throw a quality start.

Opposing him is rookie Severino Gonzalez, called up from the minors after Chad Billingsly was put on the DL.
