Alou returns to left

 
After DHing to rest his cranky body Sunday vs. the Yankees, Moises Alou is back in left field for Game 1 of today's doubleheader against Tom Glavine and the Braves.

The lineup: Reyes, ss Castillo, 2b Wright, 3b Beltran, cf Church, rf Alou, lf Delgado, 1b Schneider, c Maine, rhp [link]
