Brewers Lineup For Game One

Stay connected for news and updates

The Brewers' lineup is in, and it looks like Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun are on the bench.

Corey Hart - RF
Nyjer Morgan - CF
Ryan Braun - LF
Prince Fielder - 1B
Rickie Weeks - 2B
Jerry Hairston - 3B
Yuniesky Betancourt - SS
Jonathan Lucroy - C
Yovani Gallardo - P

Oh, wait, there they are.

No real surprises, as Corey Hart has been the leadoff hitter since Rickie Weeks went down to injury. Hart ended up having a pretty fantastic year with the bat, so Ron Roenicke left him where he was when Weeks returned. Nyjer Morgan has the traditional speed that a lot of managers are enamored of in a leadoff hitter, but Roenicke likes his #2 hitter to do #2-hitter things, and Morgan's as good a candidate as any.

Hairston gets the start at third base against a right-hander over Casey McGehee, who got sucked into a BABIP vortex this year.

The Brewers were second in the National League with a 102 team OPS+, tied with the ... Mets?
