Ordinarily I'd have some blurb about tonight's starting pitchers up here, along with some random numbers from FanGraphs. You don't care about that. You can look that up yourself.
Ordinarily Carlos Martinez would have started this game and probably pitched brilliantly. But that didn't happen. Carlos was skipped this time around due to an ouchie back and already pitching far more innings than he ever has in a professional baseball season.
Ordinarily Tyler Lyons would have taken this start, but he was shuttled back to Memphis recently and it's too soon to call him back up.
Ordinarily Carlos Villanueva doesn't get 3 plate appearances in a game.
