Making his first start for the Brewers will be left-hander Kyle Harrison. The Brewers acquired him from the Red Sox along with David Hamilton and Shane Drohan right before spring training started. “What impresses me is that [Harrison]’s capable.

He’s done it before. He’s very capable of getting right handed hitters out as well as lefties and his stuff is at times very good. He’s got to learn to mature and become a major league starter.

This is the land of opportunity. You know we give those young people the chance, we bet on those young people, we put through the car wash, and usually after Hooky and Henderson get their hands on them, they come out better” manager Pat Murphy said. As far as the lineup goes for the Brewers, Joey Ortiz gets a day off today against Nick Martinez and David Hamilton is in there at shortstop.
