NEW YORK (AP) — Gold Glove third baseman Ke’Bryan Hayes was scratched from the Pittsburgh Pirates’ lineup Tuesday night against the New York Mets because of tightness in his lower back.
“It just kind of locked up on him a little bit trying to work out. He couldn’t get it really to release, so just out of the abundance of caution just going to make sure that we keep him down,” manager Derek Shelton said.
Jared Triolo shifted from second base to third and moved from sixth in the batting order to Hayes’ spot at No. 3.
Oneil Cruz, who had been scheduled for a night off against left-hander Jose Quintana, was inserted at shortstop. Alika Williams moved from shortstop to second base.
Hayes began the day batting .277 with no homers and seven RBIs.
In other injury-related news, Yasmani Grandal (left foot plantar fasciitis) was set to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday night with Triple-A Indianapolis. The 35-year-old catcher was expected to play four or five innings, Shelton said, but there’s still no timetable for his return.
