Impact Burger drew the start at third base due to the absence of Yoan Moncada (oblique). Despite hitting ninth, Burger took advantage of his unexpected opportunity by roping a double to right field prior to coming around to score in the second inning. He is likely to get another start at third base Saturday because Tim Anderson remains suspended for the game, meaning Leury Garcia will shift to shortstop. Once Anderson is eligible to return on Sunday, the most likely outcome is that Burger will split time with Garcia at third base until Moncada is able to return.
