Maikel Franco sits again in favor of J.P. Crawford as the Phillies close out their three-game series at Citi Field against the Mets.
Crawford bats seventh, just as he did in his MLB debut Tuesday, when he went 1 for 5 with a bloop single to center.
Rhys Hoskins transitions back to left field after playing first base last night. It's Hoskins' 27th start this season and 21st in left field.
Nick Williams moves back up to the three-spot in the order after going 2 for 5 with a double and three RBIs in last night's 9-1 win.
Again, it's worth mentioning that the forecast calls for rain in New York all night. Matt Harvey has already been scratched because of weather-related concerns (see game notes). It has been raining most of the morning and afternoon, and as of 3:30 p.m. there was a better than 50 percent chance of rain at game-time. It jumps up to 80 percent at 9 p.m. and 95 percent by 10 p.m.
