Taking the ball tonight in the middle game of the three-game series for the R-Phils will be LHP Yohan Flande (2-3, 2.55). In his last outing, Flande, 24, went seven solid innings on May 14 in Akron, en-route to his second win of the season. The lefty has posted a 2-1 mark with a 3.86 ERA over three games started during the month of May.

On the mound for the Senators will be RHP Brad Meyers (1-0, 0.00). Originally selected by the Nationals in the 2007 First-Year-Player Draft, Meyers, 24, takes the hill for just the third time this season. The California native has yet to allow an earned run this season over his 11 innings pitched.

Before the game, RHP Ty Taubenheim was promoted to Lehigh Valley (AAA). The R-Phils roster is now at 23 active players.
