What It Means:
Tsutsugo was originally slated to begin Sunday's game on the bench. However, Ke'Bryan Hayes has been scratched due to a knee ailment. Now, Tsutsugo is getting the nod at first base, batting eighth in the order versus Phillies starter Aaron Nola.
In 189 plate appearances this season, Tsutsugo has a .169 batting average with a .478 OPS, 2 home runs, 21 runs and 18 RBI.
