From sixth to fifth to fourth. Tommy Joseph has moved up another spot in the Phillies' batting order for Tuesday's game, his third major-league start at first base. He'll bat cleanup against Marlins left-hander Wei-Yin Chen.
Joseph collected his first major-league hit Monday night, a well-struck single up the middle against lefty Adam Conley. An inning later, he came up representing the tying run and struck out on three pitches against right-handed reliever Kyle Barraclough.
Carlos Ruiz remains behind the plate as catcher Cameron Rupp continues to recover from a sore left ankle suffered in the Phillies' game-ending collision at home plate Saturday night. Ruiz starts for the third straight day, something he hasn't done since last Aug. 4-6.
Hot-hitting Tyler Goeddel remains in the lineup and bats seventh. He's 7 for 14 over his last four games (see game notes).
