You never know How a learn will play right after the break. They re Tough let s face it. They Are used to the pressure. They have a lot of  two of baseball s Best left handers Valcon Zuela and Tudor will oppose each other in the opening game. Valenzuela posted a 2.48 Era while Tudor had a 1.93 Era.
