Juan Soto left Tuesday's game after four innings when his back locked up. His status for Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cubs remains unclear. Kyle Schwarber was scratched from the lineup before the Phillies' 14-9 win over the Nationals due to a tight lower back.
His availability for tonight's game is uncertain. Zack Gelof departed Tuesday's game in the second inning after sustaining lacerations and a contusion to his hand. Manager Mark Kotsay said Gelof avoided a fracture.
