Harvard-Westlake to make history with three starting pitchers on MLB's opening day

As if Matt LaCour isn’t busy enough these days, with 22 of the Studio City Harvard-Westlake High athletic director’s teams — including football, basketball, baseball and softball — in action, he will go into next-level multi-tasking mode Thursday.

While layering his normal duties with the logistical challenges of supervising so many overlapping, pandemic-altered seasons, LaCour will try to soak in as much of a historic day for Major League Baseball and his school as he can.

At noon PDT, LaCour will fire up his office television to watch Atlanta Braves left-hander Max Fried take the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies in Citizens Bank Park.
