Can The Dodgers Sweep the Braves?
Sean Newcomb is left-handed and almost no-hit the Dodgers once this year. The other time the Dodgers faced him, they lit him up. Which Newcomb will they face today? Maybe it’s not which pitcher they face… maybe it’s what approach the hitters take and you will see a different approach because there will be different hitters tonight. Most likely this will be the lineup:
C – Grandal (You don’t take out a guy who has caught back-to-back shutouts… especially when he is s switch-hitter)
1B – Freese
2B – Dozier (Here’s your chance, Brian)
SS – The usual
3B – The usual
LF – Kemp
CF – Taylor
RF – Kike
The lineup is more problematic, because you have to think like Doc, but this is likely the lineup:
