Today's Matchup - April 8, 2011

Apologies for the lateness of this one - a lot going on in Greeley this afternoon.

The Rockies take on the Pirates for the second game of four. After being threatened by yet another rainout, the downpour has subsided and we'll get this one in.

Ian Stewart will be held out of today's game with flu-like symptoms. Manager Jim Tracy said to the media pre-game "Wear a mask if you want to talk to him." Jonathan Herrera will also get his first start of the year at second base today.

That said, here are today's lineups.

Jorge De La Rosa (1-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Russ Ohlendorf (0-0, 6.00 ERA)
