Don't look now, but the Rockies have won three straight ball games. They're still in last place, but I like to look for positives. David Hale is starting for the Rockies, and he's going to be trying to extend the streak to four games, and earn the series win over the Diamondbacks to boot. That would be nice.
Carlos Gonzalez and his strained hand are both not in the lineup. The Rockies said he was day-to-day, but now he has missed two games in a row after an off day.
