Marte (ankle) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
The second baseman exited Saturday's contest due to a left ankle contusion and said after the game he'll likely need a day off to recover, so it's no surprise he's on the bench Sunday. Marte also indicated he expects to rejoin the starting nine Monday versus the Rockies, so this should be a brief absence for the 30-year-old. Kevin Newman is manning the keystone Sunday for Arizona.
