POSTED: 1:41 pm EDT July 5, 2009

(Sports Network) - Florida Marlins shortstop Hanley Ramirez was scratched from Sunday's lineup versus the Pittsburgh Pirates due to a tight right hip flexor.

Ramirez tweaked the injury rounding first base on a single in the third inning of Florida's 5-3 win over the Pirates on Saturday night.

Ramirez leads the National League with a .346 average, has 60 runs batted in, 51 runs scored, 14 home runs, and 12 stolen bases in 78 games this season.

Emilio Bonifacio replaced Ramirez at shortstop on Sunday.
