Phillies’ lineup for their return at Yankee Stadium after a week off
For the first time in eight days, the Phillies are playing a game. Here is their lineup for tonight’s 7:05 p.m. game at Yankee Stadium:
1. Andrew McCutchen LF
2. Rhys Hoskins 1B
3. Bryce Harper RF
4. J.T. Realmuto C
5. Didi Gregorius SS
6. Jean Segura 3B
7. Jay Bruce DH
8. Scott Kingery 2B
9. Adam Haseley CF
Some notes:
• McCutchen went 0 for 9 in the first two games of the season and sat the third. He impressed in the field with a sliding grab.
• Hoskins walked seven times in the opening series. Despite the Phillies being off a full week, he trails only Mike Yastrzemski (11) and Freddie Freeman (9) in the NL in walks.
• Harper and Realmuto each hit three-run homers in the Phillies’ lone series of 2020.
• Gregorius returns to the Bronx, where he played the last five seasons and had three years of 20-plus home runs. He’s hit two solo shots in the early going.
• Segura is 2 for 12 so far. He chased several pitches out of the zone against the Marlins.
• Haseley went 4 for 6 with two doubles in his lone start last Sunday, setting himself up for more work out of the leadoff spot when McCutchen rests.
