(Photo by Luke Hales/Getty Images)In a pretty interesting lineup decision by manager Dave Roberts, Alex Call is batting 7th and playing LF in the series opener on Tuesday. Teoscar Hernandez is on the bench, and the Braves are starting RHP Bryce Elder, so it’s not a platoon matchup.Perhaps Roberts is opting to go with the better defensive option in Call, but notably, Call doesn’t hit righties very well.Here is the full Los Angeles Dodgers lineup for 8/25, per @UnderdogMLB:Dodgers 8/25: “S. Ohtani DH F. Freeman 1B M. Betts SS M. Muncy 3B T. Edman 2B K. Tucker RF A. Call LF A. Thomas CF H. Feduccia C T. Glasnow SP”
