A Note for Tonight:

Cole Hamels has been scratched because of the flu as the Phillies try for the series win over the Nationals. This may seem like a small victory, but all wins are big against divisional opponents. With Hernandez, however, it means that the bullpen will likely be involved for at least a few innings today.

Lineup:

Revere CF / Rollins SS / Utley 2B / Byrd RF / Howard 1B / Ruiz C / Mayberry LF / Nix 3B / Hernandez P
