Kansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (back) remains out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays.
It's Dozier's second straight absence due to a lingering back issue. Chris Owings is covering the hot corner again Wednesday for Kansas City.
Dozier is batting .324/.430/.676 with 7 home runs, 12 RBI, and 12 runs scored in 86 plate appearances this season.
