The Philadelphia Phillies are set to wrap up their three-game set with the Kansas City Royals on Monday, and it’s a rare 2:10 p.m. ET start time on getaway day.
After the Royals series finale, the Phillies will head to Cincinnati for a series against the Reds. It’s a rubber match in Monday’s matinee, and the Phils have revealed their lineup ahead of the game, as they always do.
Phillies’ JT Realmuto Back in Lineup

After missing Sunday’s game against the Royals, J.T. Realmuto is back in the Phillies lineup.
Phillies 7/6: “T. Turner SS K. Schwarber DH B. Harper 1B A. Bohm 3B B. Marsh RF E. Sosa LF B. Stott 2B J. Realmuto C D. Hill CF C. Sánchez SP”
It should be a favorable game for the Phillies, as Christopher Sanchez (10–3, 2.00 ERA, 136 SO)is getting the ball in the series finale.
If not already, Sanchez should be considered the favorite to win the NL Cy Young award.
