SP: LHP CC Sabathia vs. LHP Jon Lester
I can't say that there are many surprises in the lineup. The only thing that remotely shocked me was having Ichiro bat seventh. The reasoning for that is Joe Girardi wanting to split up the lefties, which there were a lot of in the top of the order before Ichiro was moved down. I'm pretty pleased with the balance of the lineup. Now let's see if they can win with it.
