The beard is back, bay-bay! Prior to Sunday’s 2023 Little League Classic, the Philadelphia Phillies announced the club has recalled OF Brandon Marsh from his rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The Phillies do not have to make a corresponding move until Monday due to MLB rules permitting a 27th player for Sunday’s game. Marsh was injured on August 5 against Kansas City when he collided with the centerfield fence at Citizens Bank Park.
Prior to tonight’s game against the Washington Nationals, the Phillies recalled OF Brandon Marsh from his rehab assignment with Lehigh Valley (AAA), reinstated him from the 10-day IL (left knee contusion) and added him as the additional player for tonight’s Little League Classic.
