Doubleheader, Game 1: D-backs 6, Padres 4

Due to the hurricane, MLB moved Sunday’s game to a 12:10 start on Saturday. Today’s regularly scheduled evening game will be game 2 and will be unaffected.

In double headers, teams are allowed to call up an extra player. Per GLB, it appears the Padres have brought up Matt Waldron and he will start the first game. He is a RHP, with only one MLB appearance, this past June. In 19 games at AAA, he has an ERA of 7.28, a WHIP of 1.62 and a 2-9 record.

It looks like our 27th man is Peter Strzelecki.
