Shane Victorino has been activated from the disabled list and is batting sixth while playing right field today for the Philadelphia Phillies against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers.

The 26-year-old Maui native strained his right calf July 30 trying to beat out a double play. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list July 31.

Victorino is batting .284 with career highs in home runs (11), runs scored (72) and stolen bases (32).
