Phillies third baseman Cody Asche returned to the spring lineup Thursday against the Tigers after leaving Monday's game due to injury. Asche suffered a bruised right triceps Monday against the Orioles after he was hit by a pitch in the top of the sixth inning.
Asche is batting .273 (3 for 11) with two doubles, two RBI, one run, one walk and three strikeouts in five games.
