 There was considerable debate as to whether Galvis should open the 2013 season working on his hitting in AAA , or on the bench of the major league Phillies . Manager Charlie Manuel preferred the latter , commenting that even in 300 major league at bats splitting time between second base , shortstop , and third base , Galvis could make a greater contribution than in a season in the minor leagues . Ultimately , he did make the opening day roster , but struggled through the first third of the season , and was optioned to AAA on June 27 . Correspondingly , the Phillies acquired veteran infielder John McDonald . He performed better in AAA , including a 40 @-@ game streak during which he did not commit any errors , and a leadoff home run on the Fourth of July . He returned to the major league Phillies as a September callup , and on September 7 , 2013 , he compiled four hits including a game @-@ winning home run against the Atlanta Braves . Overall , 19 at second base , 14 at third base , 10 in left field , and six at shortstop comprised his 49 total major league starts . At the major league level , he hit .234 with six home runs and 19 RBIs , and in AAA , he hit .245 with three home runs and 25 RBIs .
