Turner, F-Mart out for game two

August 22, 2010 - 4:02 PM

The Bisons dropped the opener of their doubleheader with Pawtucket, 9-2. They also lost second baseman Justin Turner to a potentially serious knee injury on the second pitch of the game.

As a result, there a few lineup changes for the second game. Turner is out, with Russ Adams moving from right field to second base. Also out is Fernando Martinez, who looked like he could have been playing with an injury in the first game. Either that or he was serioulsy dogging it on a couple flyballs and a grounder that turned into a double play.

Andy Green, who replaced Turner at second in the first game, moves to center field.

Here's the lineup for game two:

Luis Hernandez, SS

Green, CF

Lucas Duda, LF

Nick Evans, 1B

Adams, 2B

Valentino Pascucci, RF

Mike Cervenak, 3B

J.R. House, DH

Michael Barrett, C

Adam Pettyjohn, P
