News and notes: Michael Young is back after being placed on the bereavement list. He will not be in the lineup tonight, but is available to pinch hit. Young dealt with family emergency as his 9-month-old son was hospitalized due to an unspecified illness. Young did say that they have ruled out some of the more scarier, serious issues with his son.

As for tonight’s game, the Phillies ABSOLUTELY need to win. No more messing around with a Miami team they’ve only gone 6-4 against so far. A sweep is crucial. They have to beat up on the bad teams. That needs to start tonight.

Oh, and Dom Brown, NL Player of the Month. Chyeah.

Lineup: Revere CF, Hernandez 2B, Rollins SS, Howard 1B, Brown LF, Young RF, Galvis 3B, Kratz C, Kendrick P

GAMEDAY BEER: Yuengling Light Lager

If Dutch Daulton is a fan, then so are we. Light Lager is suprisingly smooth and it kicks the pants off other light beers like Miller and Bud. And it’s incredibly affordable, so you don’t have to break the bank to grab a case of it. -Pat Gallen
