The Atlanta Braves had a new look lineup with the absence of Ender Inciarte, after he he left last night’s game before he completely blew out his left hamstring. So, the lineup shifted most noticeably at the top.
Erick Aybar led off, Nick Markakis moved all the way up from 5th to 2nd, Kelly Johnson got the start in left field, and the obvious difference, Drew Stubbs got his first start in a Braves uniform in place of Inciarte.
Before we dabble in the highlights, or lack thereof, I have to say, Tim Hudson back in Turner Field was a sight for sore eyes … Wonder if he wouldn’t mind signing a one year deal.
