The Philadelphia Phillies<\/a> are going for the sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks<\/a> on Wednesday afternoon.<\/p>\n Philadelphia is one of the hottest teams in all of MLB<\/a>, as they are now just 3.0 games behind the Atlanta Braves<\/a> for first place in the NL East, and the Braves and Phillies will face off this weekend for a highly anticipated series.<\/p>\n However, speaking to the here and now, the Phillies have revealed their lineup for the series finale against the Diamondbacks, and it features a notable Brandon Marsh<\/a> decision.<\/p>\n More MLB on Heavy: New York Yankees Player Jose Caballero Had Game to Forget In Angels Series<\/a><\/p>\n Brandon Marsh Back In Phillies Order For the series finale against the AZ Diamondbacks, Brandon Marsh is back in the batting order, batting sixth.<\/p>\n Here is the full lineup, per @UnderdogMLB:<\/a><\/p>\n Phillies 9\/2: \u201cK. Schwarber 1B T. Turner SS B. Harper DH L. Arraez 2B B. Stott 3B B. Marsh LF J. Crawford CF J. Realmuto C B. De La Cruz RF A. Painter SP\u201d<\/p>\n Andrew Painter<\/a> is getting the start for the Phillies, and JT Realmuto will form a battery with Painter.<\/p>\n Here is what people were saying about the Marsh decision:<\/p>\n @TheRealBobboh: \u201cBrandon Marsh has been one step short of a waste for 2 months.\u201d<\/p>\n @PhilsTailgate noted Marsh\u2019s #\u2019s from July to August:\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cJuly-August 168 AB | 33 H | 3 2B | 3 HR | 12 RBI .196\/.273\/.268 | .541 OPS\u201d<\/p>\n So, it appears that Brandon Marsh, who was named to the All-Star team for the first time this season, has slowed down at the plate.<\/p>\n @Sanchez4Cy: \u201cDid Tom McCarthy and Ben Davis<\/a> just say Brandon marsh has been good lately?
