Overview

• Manager Rob Thomson said Turner will start at shortstop in Game 162 with only a few innings planned after he was cleared by the medical staff.
• The shortstop returns for the first time since Sept. 7 following a Grade 1 right hamstring strain and is batting leadoff in the finale.
• Philadelphia is locked into the National League's No. 2 seed with a first-round bye and will host NLDS Game 1 on Saturday.
• In a corresponding move, right-hander Max Lazar was optioned to the rookie-level Florida Complex League Phillies.
• Turner enters the final day leading the NL with a .305 average and 179 hits as he contends for a second career batting title.
