Howard not in the ballpark; availability unknown

Ryan Howard, who came off the bench Saturday night to hit a three-run, pinch-hit home run despite being hospitalized earlier in the day with flu-like symptoms, was back in the hospital following the game.

As of noon Sunday, although he had been discharged from the hospital, Howard was not in the ballpark. According to the Phillies spokesperson, Howard's fever "spiked" overnight.

When he first went into the hospital shortly after 3 a.m. Saturday, Howard was running a temperature of 103.9.

Obviously more on Howard's status when it becomes available...
