Q. Do you have a Game 3 or Game 4 starter yet?
DUSTY BAKER: No. I mean, we have talked about it, but we haven't settled upon it. We're trying to get to this Game 3, and then have a day off tomorrow, and then we'll discuss it after the game today.
Q. Got Tucker up to third today. Do you think maybe a chance you can get him going in a different spot?
DUSTY BAKER: No, not a different spot. It's a different spot, but in front of Yordan versus behind Yordan. He's been struggling for a while. And Yordan struggled yesterday. So if we have both of them struggling, you don't have as much. Hopefully we'll get him going today.
Q. There's a report that Yordan is dealing with a virus. How is he feeling? And what went into the consideration to put him in the lineup today?
DUSTY BAKER: His name is Yordan. That's number one. And plus, number two, the reports about him having a virus, I got a virus, everybody got a virus.
So he's fine. He's better today than he was yesterday.
Q. Just to follow up, are you sick or is Alvarez sick? You said everybody has a virus --
DUSTY BAKER: No. Yeah, my allergies are bothering me, yeah, like I said. I mean, what is sick? No, I'm serious. I'm not being a smarty.
Q. I guess what are the things Alvarez is dealing with?
DUSTY BAKER: He's fine. He's better today than he was yesterday. And like I was telling somebody yesterday, as a responsible man, a family man, you go to work, you know? And I never saw my dad in the bed ever sick, and I'm sure he was sick. And sometimes as a man you just go to work.
