Two hits in return Realmuto (finger) went 2-for-4 with a double in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Rockies.

Impact Realmuto missed one game with a sprained right pinkie finger. He was one of three Phillies with multiple hits and the only one to log an extra-base hit in the tough loss. He played the full game at catcher, so he should be good to resume his starting role going forward. Realmuto has hit safely in seven straight games, going 9-for-24 (.375), raising his season slash line to .291/.311/.496. He's added three home runs, 15 RBI, 13 runs scored, five stolen bases, 11 doubles and three triples through 34 contests overall.

Impact Realmuto left Friday's game with a sprained right pinky in the seventh inning. The backstop will likely sit out Saturday with Garrett Stubbs all but assured to be the catcher against Colorado for that contest. Consider Realmuto day-to-day, but it's positive news that he doesn't appear to have structural damage in the pinky.

Leaves with sprained right pinky Realmuto left Friday's game against the Rockies with a sprained right pinky, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. He went 1-for-2 before leaving.

He also led off the seventh inning with a triple and was driven in one batter later.
