ST. LOUIS – Corey Hart returns to the Brewers' lineup tonight in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series at Busch Stadium.

Manager Ron Roenicke gave Hart the night off in Game 4, choosing to give Mark Kotsay a second straight start. Also in the lineup tonight is Carlos Gomez, who takes over for the struggling Nyjer Morgan in center field.

Aside from Morgan's poor showing thus far in the NLCS, Roenicke went with Gomez because St. Louis is starting left-hander Jamie Garcia. Gomez hit just .225 overall during the regular season but against lefties, Gomez hit .278 with six of his eight home runs and 12 RBI

Gomez has been having a good postseason, hitting .300 (3-for-10) with a home run and two stolen bases.

Zack Greinke starts tonight for the Brewers – his third of the postseason. Though he's 1-0 in the playoffs, he's given up a lot of runs (8.18 ERA) and hasn't worked past the sixth inning in his two previous starts.

Roenicke will speak with the media around 4:30. If anything else of interest develops, I'll be sure to pass that along. In the meantime, here's a look at the Brewers' lineup for Game 5, which gets underway at 7:05 p.m.
