Red Sox left-handed starter
Brian Johnson will be facing a 6'7" obstacle when he throws his first pitch today against
The Bronx Embalmers. The manager of
The Evil Ones—
Aaron "F." Boone—has inserted
Aaron Judge at the top of his line-up, something he says he might do often against left-handed starters.
Brett Gardner, the normal lead-off hitter for
The Pinstriped Posers, hit just .209 against lefties in 2017 with a pathetic .590 OPS. Watching the lumbering Judge whiff on three straight Johnson pitches will be a welcome start to the contest. Be sure to tune in!
