Freddie Freeman returns to the lineup Monday night when the Atlanta Braves take on the Philadelphia Phillies. Freeman was scratched with discomfort in his elbow early last week that was a result of increased activity through the early part of the spring. Freeman took part in a full workout Sunday and will make his return tonight.

Sean Newcomb will make his second start of the spring tonight for the Braves. Nick Markakis will get the start in right field with Cristian Pache in center and hitting ninth.

Zach Eflin will be on the mound Monday night for the Phillies who will have top prospect Alec Bohm in the lineup hitting sixth and playing third base.
