Miguel Amaya went 2-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Phillies.After sitting out Monday's game, Amaya returned to the lineup and rattled off his second straight two-hit effort dating back to Sunday. The catcher has a .653 OPS so far this season, which is a step back from last year's .688 mark.
