The lineup cards at Phoenix Muni are a thing of beauty. Having the rosters for both teams, along with standard statistics, makes it really easy for writers and reporters to have a one-stop shop for contextualizing relevant information to convey to you, the reader.
Prior to Arizona State’s 12-5 win over Washington glancing at the lineups were a great way to mentally prepare to enjoy a three-plus hour ballgame. After eyeballing the first six batters in the order and their RBI totals on the year, it looked something like this:
Lampe, Joe – 14
McLain, Sean – 14
Long, Ethan – 16
Davis, Conor – 16
Tobias, Jacob – 4
Baez, Nate – 14
Something sticks out right?
