6, 2012, Revere was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies in exchange for Vance Worley and Trevor May. Revere was picked to lead off the Phillies' Opening Day lineup for the 2013 season against the Atlanta Braves over Jimmy Rollins after a strong spring training performance. After acquiring Revere, Phillies General Manager (GM) Rubén Amaro Jr. commented, "He can go to the top of the order or bottom of the order. Either way, for us it was about the defense and the speed. We like athletic players and he's certainly that. He has great energy, a fantastic defender. And those are priorities for us." On April 15, 2013, the day of the Boston Marathon bombing, Revere inscribed "Pray for Boston" onto a piece of masking tape and taped it to his glove, which he left sitting out while he stretched. A photographer from Getty Images photographed the glove, and Revere later commented that his phone was "ringing off the hook" with thanks for the gesture. Revere commented, In the subsequent game, Revere made an incredible leaping, diving catch with the glove, robbing Todd Frazier of an extra base hit. Near the beginning of the season, Revere sustained an injury to his quadriceps that he worsened in the April 24 game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He missed multiple consecutive games and was replaced in the lineup by Freddy Galvis. Revere finally returned on May 3, his 25th birthday. He injured his elbow in a game against the Boston Red Sox on May 27 after jamming it into the metal fence at Fenway Park. He remained in the game, and x-rays later turned up negative. Revere later said of the injury, "Luckily, I've got strong enough bones. If it was somebody else it may have been bad, but luckily it wasn't serious." By the end of May, Revere was back hitting mainly at the top of the order after manager Charlie Manuel decided to adjust the lineup in hopes of sparking some offense. He managed two hits in a game against the Miami Marlins on June 3, stole two bases, and stopped an extra-base hit from Adeiny Hechavarria. "I just have to take it one game at a time and not put any pressure on myself. I'm finding my stroke", Revere later said of the game. On July 13, Revere suffered a fractured foot after a foul ball hit him while at-bat. He
