The Mets will look to win back to back games for the first time since June, as they take on the Colorado Rockies tonight in the 2nd game of their 3 game set. After a brilliant performance by Mike Pelfrey last night, the Mets will look to LHP Jon Niese to deliver tonight. Niese is coming off a very solid start VS the Phillies in Philadelphia last weekend. Opposing Niese will be fellow LHP Jeff Francis. Francis, in his career VS the Mets, is 2-2 with a 5.40 ERA. David Wright, who has been slumping as of late, will hopefully break out tonight against a pitcher that he has dominated over the course of his career. Wright is 6-9, with 3 HR's in his career against Francis. Game time is 7:10PM. Here are the starting lineups:
For the 58-54 Colorado Rockies:
1. Dexter Fowler LF
2. Todd Helton 1B
3. Carlos Gonzalez CF
4. Troy Tulowitzki SS
5. Melvin Mora 3B
6. Ryan Spillborghs RF
