NL: PHILADELPHIA (0-2) at COLORADO (2-0) <h3>Rockies head home in search of a sweep</h3> <div class="pre">Philadelphia at Colorado 9:37 pm EDT</div><div class="pre">National League Division Series Rockies lead, 2-0</div> <div class="pre">DENVER (Ticker) - The Colorado Rockies are looking more and</div>more like the team of destiny this postseason, and that mayspell doom for the Philadelphia Phillies. The Rockies will host the Phillies on Saturday in Game Three ofthe best-of-five National League Division Series, needing a winto move on to the first NL Championship Series in franchisehistory. Kaz Matsui played the unlikely hero in the Game Two victory forColorado, clubbing a grand slam and driving in five runs to leadColorado to a 10-5 victory. Yorvit Torrealba drove in two runs for the Rockies, who areplaying in the postseason for just the second time in the15-year history of the franchise. "We know how good (the Phillies) play at home," Torrealba said."To be able to win two games here is huge. In our mind, all wewanted to do was just win at least one out of two. It's great." Matsui finished the game a single short of the cycle, flying outto center field in his final at-bat in the eighth inning. Notknown for his power, the Japanese leadoff hitter had just fourhomers in the regular season, but gave the Rockies a 6-3 lead inthe fourth when he greeted righthanded reliever Kyle Lohse witha grand slam over the wall in right field. Colorado will go for the sweep with 23-year-old Ubaldo Jimenez(4-4, 4.28 ERA). The righthander became a fixture in theRockies rotation after the All-Star break and allowed three runsor less in 12 of his 15 starts in 2007. "It's exciting to be out there, knowing if we win we're going togo to the next stage, so I feel happy, very happy," Jimenezsaid. "I'm going to feel really excited about it, but I'm goingto slow everything down, so I can execute my pitches and go outthere and compete. It's going to be fun, like, having so manypeople rooting for us. It's going to be fun!" Jimenez surrendered two runs and four hits in six innings to thePhillies on September 10, but did not factor in the decision. Colorado manager Clint Hurdle, who has a roster consisting ofjust four players with more than six years of major leagueexperience, has no problem trusting the youngster. "There has been a couple of things that have jumped out to usabout Ubaldo," Hurdle said. "Number one, the maturation of thepitching poise that we saw early in spring training to thispoint now. I've watched him instructionally the last couple ofwinters, a lot of guys didn't get to see him. He came intospring training on the outside looking in, trying to getattention. After watching a pair of youngsters drop the opening two gamesof the series, Philadelphia will look to 44-year-old Jamie Moyer(14-12, 5.01) with its season on the line. The veteran lefthander was the starter on the final day of theregular season last Sunday, and allowed an unearned run in 5 1/3innings as the Phillies clinched a playoff spot. However, heis 0-4 with a 5.54 ERA in his career against the Rockies. "We play tomorrow, we win, we play Sunday; we lose, we go home,"Moyer said of his team's 0-2 deficit in the best-of-five NLDS."It's - unfortunately that's the way it is. But we've playedhard. We have a lot to be proud of, the way we played thisseason, the way we fought back, the way we came back and won ourdivision, and, you know, the way I look at it we're not out ofthis."
