Brandon Phillips (knee) returns to Reds' lineup

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips (knee) will return to the starting lineup as the Reds host the Miami Marlins on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Phillips left Sunday's game with a left knee contusion, and missed two starts wit the injury. He will bat cleanup while starting at second base in his return to the lineup.

The 35-year-old Phillips is slashing .282./319/.403 on the year. He owns a .310 wOBA and .121 ISO through 440 plate appearances.
