DENVER -- Before the National League Division Series began, Rockies manager Bud Black sat down to talk with German Marquez. Their conversation wasn't anything profound, Black said. There was no indecisiveness, only confidence. Marquez was going to start Game 3.

The pressure of that assignment only intensified over the last two days at Miller Park as the Brewers jumped out to a commanding 2-0 series lead over the Rockies. Now, it falls upon Marquez to keep Colorado's season alive on Sunday afternoon at Coors Field.
