Chris Davis scratched Tuesday for Orioles with illness, Joey Rickard draws start

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis has been scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays due to illness.

What It Means:

It's a sick day for Davis. Trey Mancini is now on first base while Joey Rickard is starting in right field and hitting sixth versus Rays right-hander Tyler Glasnow.

Davis is 4-for-12 (.333) with a home run, 2 doubles, and 6 RBI over the past three games after opening the year hitless over 37 at-bats.
