NEW YORK -- Texas Rangers backup catcher Luis Martinez will make his first start of the season tonight against the New York Yankees. Martinez, who will catch left-hander Matt Harrison, will be batting in between left fielder David Murphy and designated hitter Mitch Moreland at the bottom of the order because manager Ron Washington wanted to split up his lefties. The lineups:
