Cleveland second baseman Carlos Baerga, who became the first player in major league history to hit home runs from both sides of the plate during the same inning on April 8, said he has been a switch-hitter since he was 8. “My father was the one who started me switch-hitting when I first started playing baseball,” he said. . . . The starts of the Angels’ April 27 game against the New York Yankees and their June 15 game against the Texas Rangers have been moved to 7:30 p.m. to accommodate ESPN telecasts.
