Quick notes:
First pitch is scheduled for 8:20 on FOX
Slumping Nick Swisher is starting (contrary to widespread rumor that he’d be getting a day off in favor of Brett Gardner).
Aaaaand that’s all I got tonight. Can’t wait for 8:20 to roll around–whatever happened to afternoon games on Sundays? Then again, at least it’s not on TBS. Thank god for the little things, right?
Enjoy the game!
