<\/p>\nHunter Greene will make his 2026 Cactus League debut on Saturday afternoon in the ballpark formerly known as Maryvale, as the Cincinnati Reds hit the road to take on their NL Central rivals from Milwaukee.<\/p>\n
Manager Terry Francona has rolled out a lineup chock full of regulars for the outing, too, as the lineup and travel roster for the day reveal.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With lefty Rob Zastryzny on the mound, Tito has once again opted to align his outfield with TJ Friedl in LF and Dane Myers in CF, doing his best to both maximize his defensive prowess out there while also getting more guys in the lineup who can, in theory, hit southpaws. Blake Dunn, who\u2019s fresh off his first homer of the spring, will get the start in RF.<\/p>\n

On the infield, Sal Stewart will get a game in at 3B. He\u2019s already gotten starts at both 1B and 2B so far this spring as the club is choosing to see just how much defensive versatility he can provide for their daily shuffling \u2013 shuffling that includes Spencer Steer sliding over to start at 1B on the day.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re also getting a look at Christian Encarnacion-Strand in the lineup, finally. He\u2019s reportedly been dealing with a minor hamstring issue while in camp, and he\u2019ll be limited to DH duties this afternoon.<\/p>\n
Most importantly, though, is that this game will finally be one you can watch. Both Reds.tv and Brewers.tv will have coverage, and you\u2019ll be able to choose which of those feeds to watch via MLB.tv. It\u2019s one of the free games of the day, too, so you won\u2019t even need to buy your season subscription yet first.<\/p>\n
First pitch is set for 3:05 PM ET.
