CINCINNATI — Manager Dusty Baker’s lineup card for the finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks included neither Jay Bruce nor Ramon Hernandez.
Somebody asked, “A couple of guys getting days off?”
Said Baker, “Yeah, but you could also say it is a couple of guys getting days on.”
He meant that Chris Dickerson got to play right field and Ryan Hanigan got to catch.
While Bruce was bouncing along at .212, Dickerson had his average up to .283, with a five-game hitting streak.
“Trying to do the best we can down this stretch to the All-Star break to win every game we can,” said Baker. . . .
