Ellsbury back in the lineup

Jacoby Ellsbury is not exactly looking chipper, but he plans to be in the lineup today for the Sea Dogs.

Ellsbury was scratched yesterday because of a stomach flu. He skipped batting practice today and hit in the inside cages. He said he's feeling "better," but he did not look 100 percent. Ellsbury is batting .455, which leads the Eastern League by 90 points (Reading's Jesus Merchan is hitting .365).
Here is today's Sea Dogs lineup:
Ellsbury, CF
Jeff Corsaletti, LF
Jeff Natale, DH
Cory Keylor, RF
Jed Lowrie, SS
Dusty Brown, C
John Otness, 1B
Zach Borowiak, 3B
Iggy Suarez, 2B
Andrew Dobies, P

One other note: Trenton already won today, beating New Hampshire 3-2. The Thunder are now 19-2.
