Marlon Byrd is batting fourth and playing center field a day after passing a kidney stone that had forced him to miss the previous three games. He said he is still sore but feeling well enough to play. Omar Vizquel gets his first start of the road trip, at shortstop, and Ivan Rodriguez is the catcher.
