Taking seat against lefty Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Impact The Mets are sending a lefty (David Peterson) to the bump for the second game of the series, so the left-handed-hitting Lowe will retreat to the bench. Spencer Steer will cover first base in place of Lowe, who went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks and a run in the Reds' 8-2 win Monday in the series opener.

Getting afternoon off Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact After slugging home runs in both ends of Saturday's twin bill, Lowe will take a seat for the series finale while the Cardinals send lefty Brycen Mautz to the hill. The Reds recently welcomed Eugenio Suarez back from the injured list, but manager Terry Francona could continue to find regular room in the lineup at first base for Lowe against right-handed pitching while the 30-year-old is wielding a hot bat. Over the last week, Lowe has gone 8-for-22 with five extra-base hits, seven RBI and four runs.

MAY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Two-homer day in twin bill Lowe homered in both ends of Saturday's doubleheader against the Cardinals. He was a combined 3-for-8 with two home runs and three RBI.

Impact Lowe started at first base in both games while Sal Stewart, the Reds' primary starter at first base, served as the designated hitter in the matinee and the third baseman in the night cap. An injury to third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) should result in a rotation of Lowe, Stewart and Eugenio Suarez in some combination sharing first base, third base and DH. Lowe is up to eight to home runs and 23 RBI over 38 games.

Nathaniel Lowe extends Reds' lead with two-run homer vs. Cardinals

MAY 24 • FOX SPORTS

Homers in matinee Lowe started at first base and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 9-1 loss to the Cardinals in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

Impact Lowe gave the Reds an early lead with his second-inning homer, but other than that, Cincinnati didn't put up much of fight. It was the seventh homer of the season for Lowe, who has hits in five consecutive starts, going 7-for-22 with three doubles, a home run and five RBI during that span. He could earn more playing time after the Reds placed third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) on the 10-day injured list Friday. Whether Sal Stewart moves from first to third or the recently activated Eugenio Suarez handles the hot corner, Lowe could see time at first base or DH.

Sitting again Tuesday Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

Impact It's the second straight game on the bench versus a right-handed starter for Lowe, who has an .876 OPS through 29 games but has scuffled a bit of late with just four hits and nine strikeouts in his past 22 at-bats. Eugenio Suarez (oblique) isn't expected to come off the injured list in the near future, so Lowe should still get plenty of playing time going forward despite the consecutive absences.
