Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (wrist) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Texas Rangers and said he's day-to-day after being hit by a pitch on Monday.

The 26-year-old went 3-for-4 with three singles, three RBI, a strikeout, and a stolen base.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis (concussion) went 0-for-1 with a walk while serving as the designated hitter on Sunday in his first minor league rehab game with Triple-A Tacoma.
