How can it be hot in here?

Well, Len DiCostanzo still hasn’t dressed at home, but he has worn white: He’s in town again backing up Lawson, and he may be here a while. And the Rats are wearing red, with the Sound Tigers wearing white for reasons yet unclear. (Not that we’re complaining.) More postgame, hopefully, if we all don’t pass out from the heat up here. Kimber came through: Portland is wearing a third jersey this weekend, so Bridgeport will wear white up there. This way, it only has to bring one set.

McLean is back up as well. Morency appears to be the lone healthy scratch, with no miraculous Colliton return.

Thanks to Hank in the comments for pointing these out. Umm… Hmm. Want to see them in action.
