It's going to be a strange sleep schedule for the next couple of days....
The Dodgers pushed up staring two regular season games in Japan will air live...at 3AM in the morning the next 2 night.
Here's what we know about these two games coming up.
Taking the mound to start the two games for the Dodgers will be Yamamoto in Game #1 and Sasaki in Game #2 The Cubs will send Imanaga to the mound for Game 1 and Steele for Game 2
Mookie Betts will NOT play in either game due to illness. Miguel Rojas will likely take his place at shortstop.
This is also the likely lineup for Game 1:
- Shohei Ohtani – DH.
- Tommy Edman – 2B.
- Freddie Freeman – 1B.
- Teoscar Hernández – RF.
- Max Muncy – 3B.
- Will Smith – C.
- Michael Conforto – LF.
- Andy Pages – CF.
The tough part for we Dodger fans is to be up at 3AM tonight for the games first pitch.
Luckily if the game runs long. there is a TV in the studio so I can watch the end of the game while I'm on the air tomorrow morning, although I think the game will not likely last that long at all.
Coffee will be the drink of choice for me tonight...
Go Dodgers!
