That's the closest Dusty has come to the lineup that I would like against right-handers all year. I would still flip Phillips and Lewis and Renteria and Hanigan. I know managers don't like playing guys both games of a double header, but I would start Janish (or Cozart) in both.
I wonder if old man Rolen will play both? I'm guessing not.

I would imagine we will see a different left fielder (Gomes), center/right fielder (Heisey), third baseman (Cairo), shortstop (Janish), catcher (Hanigan) and pitcher (Cueto) for the second game of the day.
I'm guessing the lineup will be
Heisey
Phillips
Votto
Bruce
Cairo
Gomes
Hanigan
Janish
Cueto
The Yankee lineup per Fay. No ARod or Texiera. Got to take advantage of that and beat these guys in this one.

I am going to try to do PBP until the boss man comes around.
Gardner leads off the game grounding out 4-3.
Leake Ks Granderson. 2 outs none on for Swisher.
zone looks small so far.
Very nice first inning by Leake.

Swisher grounds out 4-3.
16 first inning pitches for Leake.
Let's hope Fred gets on base here so Dusty takes this small sample size for more than it is worth and starts batting him up there more often and Lewis gets most of the starts against right handed starting pitchers.
Lewis lines out to the right fielder.
Is their any surprise Leake goes out and takes care of business. What a guy.
Hey Sparky! Indian Hill English teachers taught me everything I know!
Phillips doubles. Runner in scoring position and one out for Votto.
