The Toronto Blue Jays are making a change to their starting lineup with Anthony Santander getting scratched with lower back tightness.
The team announced the change just a couple of hours before first pitch for Game 2 of the ALCS against the Seattle Mariners.
Davis Schneider replaces Santander in the lineup and will play in left field. He’ll bat eighth, whereas Santander was previously batting seventh.
Santander went 1-for-3 with a strikeout in Game 1 against Seattle. In four games this post-season, the 30-year-old is hitting .231/.231/.231 with two RBI.
In three games, Schneider is hitting .286/.444/.429. He came in as a pinch hitter on Sunday but went without a base knock.
Catch Game 2 of the ALCS on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+, with first pitch scheduled for 5:03 p.m. ET / 2:03 p.m. P
