Rice is starting at first base and batting fifth in Thursday's game versus the Athletics.
Rice was not in the lineup the first time the Yankees faced a lefty earlier this season, but he's in there Thursday over the right-handed-hitting Paul Goldschmidt against southpaw Jeffrey Springs. Springs is not a hard thrower and has reverse splits in his career, and it's that type of lefty Rice is likely to get opportunities against.
