Jonathan Aranda Benched vs. Lefty in World Series Game 3

Jonathan Aranda is out of the starting lineup for Game 3 of the World Series as the Tampa Bay Rays face Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser. The left-handed batter reached base five times across the first two games of the series, but Ryan Vilade will start at first base instead and bat second. Aranda remains a strong candidate to enter the contest mid-game as a pinch hitter once the Brewers bring in a right-handed reliever.
