By Matt Gelb Verified| The Athletic Verified PHILADELPHIA - Brandon Marsh leaned on the dugout railing at Citizens Bank Park for most of Monday night's game. He wore a red T-shirt without his uniform top underneath. His long hair was not wet. He did not anticipate playing because, 16 games into this season, the manager deemed his center fielder needed a break. He is hitless in his last 26 at-bats, a brutal streak but still well shy of franchise infamy.
