Miami, FL (Sports Network) - Hanley Ramirez was out of Florida's lineup on Friday for the second straight day with a shoulder injury.
The All-Star shortstop homered twice in Wednesday's 14-2 drubbing of the Houston Astros before leaving after the fourth inning with a strained left shoulder.
Center fielder Cameron Maybin took Ramirez's place in the leadoff spot on Friday against the Philadelphia Phillies, and Alfredo Amezaga shifted to shortstop for the Marlins.
Ramirez is batting .298 with 32 home runs and a .399 on-base percentage in 148 games this season.
