Keegan Akin News: Serving as opener Tuesday

Akin will open Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Akin has given up at least one run in three of six appearances so far this month, but he'll be tasked with handling the first inning or so of Tuesday's matchup before handing the ball to Chayce McDermott, who's set to serve as the primary pitcher.
