Matt McLain Returns to Reds Lineup Following Illness

Matt McLain is back in action for the Cincinnati Reds, starting at second base and batting second in Tuesday's exhibition game against the Milwaukee Brewers. McLain had previously been sidelined due to an illness but appears ready to resume full activities as the team nears the end of spring training. His return to the top of the order is a positive sign for the Reds' infield stability. Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer first reported McLain's inclusion in the lineup.
