Phillies' David Dahl: Hitting bench Sunday

Dahl is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Dahl had started in the Phillies' last four matchups with right-handed pitchers, but he'll hit the bench Sunday against Atlanta righty Reynaldo Lopez. With Dahl taking a seat, Nick Castellanos will serve as the Phillies' designated hitter while Whit Merrifield picks up a start in the corner outfield.
