Lifts homer in loss Pederson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Kansas City.

Impact Pederson went deep in the fourth inning to give Texas a 2-1 lead. The homer was his third in 21 games since returning from a hand injury in late July. It's been a forgettable season for the slugger, who opened 2025 with an epic slump (.052 average over first 20 games) and never recovered. Prior to the injury, Pederson was batting .131 and since his return, he's batting .196.

Sitting out against righty Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Impact Texas included the left-handed-hitting Pederson in the initial lineup that it released for Sunday's contest, but he was later scratched for non-health-related reasons, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News. The left-handed-hitting Pederson thus appears to be getting a rare day of rest against a righty, with the Blue Jays sending Jose Berrios to the mound for the series finale. Rowdy Tellez will fill in for Pederson as the Rangers' designated hitter.

Pederson was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Sunday but has gone 0-for-9 with three strikeouts since his return. Kyle Higashioka will serve as the designated hitter while Jonah Heim starts behind home plate.
