Today’s lineup: the fallout of Kemp’s absence

With Kemp out, Joe decided NOT to start Danny Ardoin despite Kuroda’s recent success with him catching because Joe didn’t want to take both Kemp’s and Martin’s bats out of the lineup. So, Russ is playing. And because it’s a day game after a night game, Kent is resting.
