Broncos vs. Colts, Game 3

I'm back at Veterans as the Broncos look to snap a skid that has seen them lose five of their first six games to start the season.

There have been some moves, however, as the team has Luis Ugueto back in the fold. The former Seattle Mariner and star shortstop is leading off in the lineup and will DH.

Also new to the lineup is Rafael Ozuna, who played with Alexandria of the ULB last season. He hit .326 with 42 RBIs and 10 homers with the Aces, and posted a career-best on-base percentage of .410.

The 34-year-old is batting sixth in the lineup and will play second base.

To make room for the duo, the Broncos inactivated three pitchers - Ryan Harris, Tano Tijerina and Gustavo Vasquez.

Also, catcher Jake Wells is in the lineup in place of Kylee Hash.

Gregorio Martinez is on the mound for the Broncos tonight. For the Colts, it is Drew Coffey.

Martinez is 0-1 with a 7.11 ERA so far this season, having surrendered five earned runs in 6.1 innings,

Coffey is 0-0 with a 4.50 ERA, having surrendered two earned runs in four innings.
