Rookie Todd Frazier busts into Reds' Game 4 lineup
Make an error in the 10th inning, get yanked from the next game's lineup.
That's what happened to Scott Rolen, anyway. Here is Reds manager Dusty Baker's lineup for Game 4 of their Division Series against the Giants:
1. Brandon Phillips - 2B
2. Zack Cozart - SS
3. Joey Votto* - 1B
4. Ryan Ludwick (R) LF
5. Jay Bruce* - RF
6. Todd Frazier - 3B
7. Dioner Navarro# - C
8. Drew Stubbs - CF
9. Mike Leake - P
Scott Rolen made that big error in Game 3, but that's not really why Dusty Baker has replaced him with Todd Frazier in Game 4. It's probably just that Frazier's a really good hitter and needs to start a game every so often.
The other change from Game 3 is at catcher, where switch-hitting Dioner Navarro fills in for Ryan Hanigan, probably just to give Hanigan a day off, since no advantage is gained against Giants starter Barry Zito, a left-hander.
