The Los Angeles Dodgers look for their second straight win on Friday night as they host the Colorado Rockies in the opening game of a three-game set at Dodger Stadium. Chris Capuano gets the start for the Dodgers, looking for his team-leading fifth win of the season. The left-hander hasn't allowed a run in any of his last two starts and has a scoreless streak of 18 2/3 innings heading into play on Friday.
Jamie Moyer gets the start for the Rockies, and even with the southpaw on the mound for Colorado Scott Van Slyke is not in the starting lineup. The right-handed Van Slyke was recalled from Triple A Wednesday, but the Dodgers turn to the left-handed Bobby Abreu to play left field Friday. Abreu is 2-for-3 against Moyer in his career, but hasn't faced him since 2003.
Here are Friday's starting lineups from Chavez Ravine:
Rockies (13-17)
Scutaro 2B
