Notes: This is Kevin Mahoney's first career start in the outfield. He's there because Dan Brewer dislocated a finger in a collision last night. ... Abraham Almonte is hitting .143/.214/.250 against lefties, which is probably why he is out. Brewer is not officially on the DL yet, which is an interesting yet confusing sign. ... Shane Brown has played center field once in his career (July 15, 2011 - he went 2 for 3 that day ) and batted leadoff 19 times in 2010 but never last season. ... Today is Austin Romine mini-bobblehead night.
