Home opener

Good afternoon from Waterfront Park, where the Thunder are taking batting practice in preparation for tonight's home opener against the Harrisburg Senators. 

The Blog didn't make it to the Thunder's first road trip, which concluded with a 4-3 record after last night's 4-3 loss at Altoona. With that in mind, this is the first time we'll get to blog from the press box, and we'll do our best to keep you updated. 

First up, tonight's starting lineups: 

Senators (4-2)

1. Roger Bernadina, CF 

2. Ed Rogers, 2B

3. Justin Maxwell, LF

4. Jorge Padilla, RF

5. Luis Jimenez, 1B

6. Yurendel DeCaster, 3B

7. Andrew LeFave, DH

8. Javy Herrera, C

9. Ian Desmond, SS
