Hits second homer Dahl (shoulder) went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.

Impact Dahl had been limited to pinch-hitting duties in the last three games, but he made his presence felt in his return to the starting lineup. The outfielder's second-inning blast accounted for the only run against White Sox start Michael Kopech in the contest. Dahl has a .214/.243/.343 slash line with two homers, six RBI, nine runs scored and no stolen bases across 75 plate appearances. He'll likely resume a near-everyday role in left field.

Re-enters lineup Dahl (shoulder) will start in left field and bat sixth Sunday against the White Sox.

Impact Texas withheld Dahl from the starting nine in each of the past three games, but he seemingly proved his sore left shoulder was no longer much of a concern after he entered Saturday's 2-1 loss as a reserve. He ended up playing three innings in the outfield and went 0-for-2 at the plate, which was enough for the Rangers to sign off on him entering the starting nine for the series finale. Dahl's return to the lineup will likely result in less work for Eli White.

Pinch hits, plays LF Dahl (shoulder) entered Saturday's game as a pinch hitter, went 0-for-2 and played three innings in left field in a 2-1 loss to the White Sox.

Impact Dahl has been nursing a sore shoulder and hadn't started either of the last two games, although both were against left-handers, so he may not have played due to the matchups. Texas manager Chris Woodward told Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News that since the Rangers began a stretch of 19 consecutive days with a game Friday, he wanted Dahl to be 100 percent for that period of time.

Not starting Saturday Dahl (shoulder) isn't starting Saturday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Dahl will be out of the lineup for a third consecutive game while he continues to deal with left shoulder soreness. However, he pinch hit in Friday's contest and could be available to do so once again Saturday. Adolis Garcia will start in left field while Eli White takes over in center field.

Dealing with minor shoulder issue Dahl has a sore left shoulder but is available to pinch hit Friday against the White Sox, Chris Halicke of SI.com reports.

Impact Dahl finds himself himself on the bench for the second straight game Friday, but that's apparently due to injury rather than the fact that he's hitting .203/.224/.297 on the season. Adolis Garcia starts in left field in his absence.

Sitting again Friday Dahl is not starting Friday's game against the White Sox.

Drives in two against Rays Dahl went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Rays.

Impact Dahl came through with a two-RBI double in the seventh inning, providing some insurance runs in an eventual victory for the Rangers. The performance was Dahl's fourth multi-hit effort of the season, though his first in his last five games. He's also had very little production to show for through 11 contests this season, as he has only three RBI, no home runs and seven runs scored.

Sitting out Sunday Dahl is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

Impact Dahl sat out Friday's 3-0 loss to the Padres in the series opener while battling an illness, but he checked back into the starting nine for Saturday's 7-4 loss, going hitless in three at-bats. The outfielder isn't believed to have suffered a setback with his health coming out of the contest, as manager Chris Woodward may just have wanted to keep the lefty-hitting Dahl on the bench with southpaw Adrian Morejon on the mound for San Diego. Eli White will cover left field in Dahl's stead Sunday.
