Sosa will start at shortstop and will bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

Sosa will pick up just his fourth start since the All-Star break while he checks in for Trea Turner, who is getting rest for the day game after playing all 12 innings in the Phillies' 7-6 loss Tuesday night. While the Phillies have all their key position players at full strength, Sosa will continue to handle a utility role and won't benefit from consistent playing time.
