Greetings from a rain-soaked Nationals Park, where the Marlins and Nats hope to play today's scheduled 1:05 p.m. game, well, on schedule. Things are a little slow considering the lateness of last night's extra-inning affair, but here is the home team's starting lineup for today's game:
CF Roger Bernadina
2B Danny Espinosa
RF Jayson Werth
LF Laynce Nix
1B Adam LaRoche
C Wilson Ramos
3B Jerry Hairston Jr.
SS Alex Cora
P Livan Hernandez
Shortstop Ian Desmond is getting the day off to rest his strained quadriceps, and Nix's hot bat keeps him in left field.
The lineup for the Marlins will be posted later.
Update: Here's the Marlins' lineup:
CF Coghlan
2B Infante
SS Ramirez
1B G. Sanchez
LF Morrison
RF Stanton
3B Dobbs
C Buck
P A. Sanchez
