Kingery hopes to rejoin Phillies' lineup Friday

PHILADELPHIA -- Scott Kingery's right arm is sore, but he is OK.

Marlins right-hander Tayron Guerrero hit Kingery on the right biceps with a 98-mph fastball in the ninth inning of Philly's 2-1 loss on Tuesday night at Marlins Park. Kingery said before Wednesday night's game against the Marlins that he can play, if needed. He said he hopes to be back in the Phillies' lineup this weekend against Washington at Nationals Park.
