Texas Rangers manager Jeff Banister said that he would rotate Jurickson Profar, Ryan Rua, and Delino DeShields in left field, and he’s been true to his word so far...after those three started in left field in the first three games, in that order, Profar played left yesterday, and now Rua is back in left today.

The lineup:

Gomez -- CF

Choo — DH

Mazara -- RF

Napoli — 1B

Odor — 2B

Lucroy — C

Gallo -- 3B

Rua — LF

Elvis — SS
