Veteran Catcher Starts for Diamondbacks Against Mets

James McCann is behind the plate for the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday, batting seventh in the lineup against the New York Mets. The veteran catcher brings a wealth of experience to the Diamondbacks' pitching staff, which will be tasked with shutting down the Mets' hitters. McCann's leadership and game-calling abilities are highly valued by the organization, especially in tight road contests like the series finale currently taking place in New York.
