Julio Rodríguez Scratched From Mariners' Lineup with Back Tightness, Day to Day

  • Seattle Mariners center fielder Julio Rodríguez was removed from the lineup for the first game of the May 22, 2025, series in Houston due to tightness in his back.
  • The scratch followed Rodríguez feeling tightened back muscles during batting practice earlier that day, prompting manager Dan Wilson to label his status as day to day.
  • About half an hour before the game, it was announced that Leody Taveras would shift from his usual spot in right field to take over center field, while Miles Mastrobuoni joined the lineup in right field and was slated to bat eighth.
  • Julio Rodríguez, honored as the top rookie in the American League in 2022, has a batting average of.231, with nine home runs and 28 RBIs this season. He also contributed a three-run homer during the Mariners' 6-5 victory over the White Sox on May 21.
  • The Astros won the opener 9-2, and Wilson stated they would assess Rodríguez’s condition the following day while remaining cautious about his back tightness.
