Nationals' Harper in lineup Tuesday despite dealing with flu-like symptoms

Ron Chenoy / USA TODAY Sports

A bout with the flu won't be enough to keep Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper out of the lineup Tuesday.

Harper, who exited Monday's game following the third inning after complaining of lightheadedness, will take his familiar spot in left field for the second of a three-game set with the Atlanta Braves. 

In 90 games this season, the 21-year-old is hitting .269/.340/.428 with 13 home runs and 32 RBIs.
