PHILADELPHIA - After sitting out Wednesday's game against the Astros with a tight quad, Adam LaRoche is back in the Nationals lineup today in the series opener against the Phillies.
LaRoche got two days of rest with yesterday's off-day, and apparently is good to go today.
Tyler Moore will play left field tonight, with Kevin Frandsen and Nate McLouth both sitting.
The Phillies will send Cliff Lee to the mound tonight, while Stephen Strasburg will get the ball for Matt Williams' squad.
