No Kyle Schwarber (illness) for 2nd straight day in #Phillies lineup.
Trea Turner is the DH. Edmundo Sosa is SS.
Before the Phillies, Schwarber had stints with the Chicago Cubs, Washington Nationals and Boston Red Sox.
He has been an incredible addition to the franchise, and helped them reach the World Series in 2022.
In 2016, the 33-year-old won the World Series with the Cubs.

After a slow start, the Phillies now find themselves as the second-place team in the National League East with a 25-23 record in 48 games.
They have won eight out of their last ten (and are 13-12 in 25 games at home).
Following the Reds, the Phillies will get the day off on Thursday before a series with the Cleveland Guardians that starts on Friday.
Don Mattingly is taking advantage of having three catchers on the roster, giving JT Realmuto extra rest while ensuring he still throws with certain pitchers.
Meanwhile, the Reds come into Tuesday’s matchup as the last-place team in the National League Central with a 24-24 record in 48 games.
They are 11-13 in 24 games on the road.
