The Dodgers will get it done tonight to clinch.
There is a lot riding on Jason Marquis (15-12, 3.98 ERA) tonight. First, the veteran right-hander needs to secure the Rockies' NL wild-card lead. Second, he needs to buck his slump and secure his spot in the postseason rotation. He has a 6.49 ERA in his last six starts, and the Rockies are 1-5 in those starts. Barring a late change, Milwaukee will start left-hander Chris Narveson (2-0, 3.82). He threw 5 2/3 strong innings against the Cubs last Wednesday. The crowd will be strong tonight @ Coors Field with the weather holding strong and a 15 mph wind blowing out. Marquis steps up and secures a spot in the tentative playoff rotation.
