Philadelphia Phillies star first baseman Bryce Harper was a late scratch ahead of Tuesday afternoon’s game against the host New York Mets due to a migraine.
Bryson Stott was moved up to third in the lineup and Alec Bohm was listed as fourth and scheduled to play at first base in place of Harper, 31.
Whit Merrifield was inserted into the lineup and slated to take over at third base for Bohm.
Harper, a two-time National League MVP, is hitting .259 with nine homers and 29 RBIs in 38 games this season.
