The last time Manny Parra took the mound at Coors Field after the All-Star Break, the Rockies abused him on their way to clinching the National League Wild Card. Yeah....I went there.
Now, the Rockies will be aiming to avoid a home series loss for just the second time in the last two months. If that happens, it is a good chance we could be witnessing history, as Ubaldo Jimenez guns for a franchise record 18th win. It probably doesn't get any easier than facing Manny Parra at home. But we know what happened the last time Ubaldo faced a pitcher who was winless in his last six starts...
