PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Two people familiar with the deal say the Philadelphia Phillies have agreed to trade six-time All-Star second baseman Chase Utley to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Both sources spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday night because the deal hasn't been finalized and is pending a review of Utley's medical records. Utley has a history of knee injuries and recently returned from the disabled list after missing more than a month because of an ankle injury.

Utley tipped his cap to the crowd after the Phillies beat Toronto 7-4 and his locker was empty. He didn't play in the game.

Utley has waived his no-trade rights to go to his hometown Dodgers and he already cleared waivers.
