May 3, 2025 2:56 PM : Busch isn't starting against the Brewers on Saturday.
Analysis: Busch had a big game versus Milwaukee in the series opener Friday, lifting a grand slam in the 10-0 win. However, the lefty-hitting first baseman will take a seat Saturday with the Brewers sending southpaw Jose Quintana to the mound. In Busch's place Saturday, Justin Turner is starting at first base and batting fifth.
