The Philadelphia Phillies are getting back one of their key players on Tuesday night. Bryce Harper is back in the lineup against the Toronto Blue Jays in Toronto, Canada.
It was one week ago that Harper took a fastball off of his elbow against the Atlanta Braves. The Phillies said that the x-rays was negative.
The team said that he was day to day. But he did not play in the rest of the Braves series or the three-game losing streak to the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Phillies were 1-4 without their big bat. Including a 17-7 loss to the Brewers on Saturday.
With the 1-4 five game stretch, the Phillies fell out of the NL East. The New York Mets are atop the standings, as they lead the Phillies by 1.5 games.
Harper will bat third in his first game back. The Phillies play the Blue Jays at 7:07 pm on Tuesday night.
