J.T. Realmuto Absent From Starting Lineup Wednesday
2 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is not in Wednesday's starting lineup against the Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Gavin Stone. It's a rare off day for the veteran backstop but an understandable one considering Wednesday is an afternoon game following an evening contest on Tuesday. It was a tough start for Realmuto following a productive World Baseball Classic effort but he's finding a groove at the dish. He had a six-game hit streak snapped on Tuesday as he recorded nine hits including a homer, a double, a triple, and a stolen base in that time. Garrett Stubbs will start behind the plate and hit ninth in Realmuto's place Wednesday afternoon.
