The Phillies coasted Monday night to an 8-3 victory over the Pirates. The four-game series continues Tuesday, and the Phils are going with virtually the same lineup they used in Game 1.

John Mayberry will replace Juan Pierre in left field. With Pierre out of the lineup, Placido Polanco moves up to second in the batting order. Mayberry will hit seventh.

Jimmy Rollins looks to continue to swing a hot bat for the Phils. Did you know J-Roll has 12 extra-base hits in his last 13 games after collecting 15 in his first 59 games? (see game notes).

Vance Worley (3-4, 2.78 ERA) will take the hill for the Phils.

Here's what the Phils' lineup will look like against Pirates starter Erik Bedard:

1. Jimmy Rollins, SS
2. Placido Polanco, 3B
3. Hunter Pence, RF
4. Carlos Ruiz, C
5. Shane Victorino, CF
6. Ty Wigginton, 1B
7. John Mayberry, LF
8. Mike Fontenot, 2B
9. Vance Worley, P
