Mets' starting lineup: Tatis spells Church

 
Late switcheroo in the Met lineup tonight - Fernando Tatis was inserted in Ryan Church's place, batting fifth and playing right field. Church is feeling nauseous, according to the Mets, and he spent much of the pre-game clubhouse access sitting at his locker with a black Mets' sweatshirt on, the hoodie drawn tight over his head. Here's the lineup: Murphy, lf Cora, ss Wright, 3b Sheffield, lf Tatis, rf Martinez, cf Schneider, c Castillo, 2b Hernandez, p By Anthony McCarron (link)
