Starting Sunday at DH Muncy (illness) will bat eighth at the designated hitter Sunday against the Nationals.

Impact An illness forced Muncy's removal from Saturday's starting lineup, but he is evidently feeling well enough to give it a go Sunday night against lefty Andrew Alvarez. The 36-year-old Muncy has hit 20 of his 26 homers this season against righties but has more than held his own against same-side pitching as well (.794 OPS).

Removal from lineup due to illness Muncy was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Nationals due to an illness.

Impact Muncy was originally slated to start at third base but was removed a few hours before game time, with Enrique Hernandez penciled in at the hot corner in his place. Given that the reason for Muncy's scratch was deemed to be an illness, he should be considered day-to-day.

Scratched from Saturday's lineup Muncy (undisclosed) was a late scratch from the Dodgers' lineup for Saturday's game versus Washington.

Impact Muncy was originally in Saturday's lineup, as was Dalton Rushing, but both players were scratched about two hours ahead of the start of the game. The Dodgers will presumably provide a reason for the change in short order. Enrique Hernandez is covering third base and batting ninth in Muncy's stead Saturday.

Launches homer Friday Muncy went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Pirates.

Impact Muncy replied to the Pirates' opening run with his two-run homer in the first inning. The third baseman has gone 10-for-34 (.294) over his last 11 contests, adding four homers and 14 RBI in that span. For the season, he's hitting .252 with an .848 OPS, 26 homers, 66 RBI, 67 runs scored, 18 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 119 contests in a starting role for much of the year. While he's been effective, a healthy Enrique Hernandez will likely lead to Muncy getting platooned more often down the stretch.
