Lance Lynn Facing Lefty-Heavy Lineup Today
4 years agoTexas Rangers starting pitcher Lance Lynn will be facing a lineup full of left-handed batters in Wednesday's series finale versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks have their fair share of switch hitters but will have six men batting from the opposite side of the batter's box. Fortunately, for Lynn, the Diamondbacks had ranked in the bottom half of the league in ISO and wOBA versus right-handed pitchers last season. Add in that Lynn held opposing lefties to a .718 OPS in 2019, and it could be a great day for Texas' ace. The former-Cardinal was excellent in his first start, where he picked up the win while striking out nine hitters in six innings.
