Sitting against southpaw

Lukes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

Analysis

Southpaw Jesus Luzardo is on the bump for the Phillies, so Blue Jays manager John Schneider will send Lukes and Jesus Sanchez to the bench to clear room in the outfield for a pair of right-handed bats in Myles Straw and Davis Schneider. Lukes has gone just 5-for-43 (.116) with a 3:14 BB:K against left-handed pitching this season.

Clutch homer Saturday

Lukes went 3-for-6 with a two-run homer during the Blue Jays' 7-5 extra-innings win over the Phillies on Saturday.

Analysis

Lukes was responsible for the Blue Jays' game-winning runs in the 11th inning, with his fly ball to center field clearing the wall for a two-run homer. It was just the sixth long ball of the season for the 31-year-old outfielder, with his last homer coming July 12 against the Padres. Lukes has a .697 OPS with one steal, 21 RBI and 17 extra-base hits over 298 plate appearances this season.
