Unusual starter for May 22 game @ Atlanta?

[Willets Point]

What's going on here?

He's kind of old, but he's tough.

May 22 --- or the last weekend in May --- is a typical release date for summer blockbusters. I'm going to guess it's Indiana Jones Day at the park.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think Indy Jones is being celebrated throughout MLB that day.

They had a similar arrangement with Spider-Man a few years ago. (I don't remember if it was for the second movie or the third.) They were going to put Spidey on the bases, but there was an uproar that led them to cancel that plan.

[Willets Point]

Well, yeah, I figured that, but I was having fun with it. Youse could play along you know?

I mean that photo doesn't even link to anything so it's pretty incongruous if you ask me.

This will be the Temple of Doom for the Braves.

[Frayed Knot]

It was supposed to be El Duque's turn in the rotation but they wanted someone younger so they went with Indiana Jones instead.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

They could have just as easily gone with one of the Mummies Indy has unearthed.

That series might be the Last Crusade for Randolph.
