Rollins returns from DL to Phillies
In first game back, shortstop will hit leadoff against Giants
By Ken Mandel / MLB.com
SAN FRANCISCO — The Phillies got their National League MVP shortstop back on Friday, activating Jimmy Rollins from the disabled list.
Rollins will be batting leadoff against the Giants in the series opener at AT&T Park.
The switch-hitting shortstop played three games this week in Clearwater, Fla., two in an extended Spring Training environment and one for Class A Clearwater. He flew to San Francisco on Thursday, and he will make his first start since April 8, when he sprained his left ankle scrambling back to second base on a pickoff attempt.
In the 28 games without Rollins, manager Charlie Manuel used 10 different combinations in the Nos. 1 and 2 spots in the batting order.
Infielder Brad Harman was optioned to Double-A Reading on Friday to make room for Rollins. He went 1-for-10 with the Phillies. (H/T Phillies.com)
