Padres' Eric Hosmer (illness) scratched Saturday; Ty France taking over at first base
San Diego Padres infielder Eric Hosmer has been scratched from the lineup Saturday against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
What It Means:
Hosmer was originally slated to start at first base and bat fifth in the lineup, but he has been removed due to a "non-COVID-19 illness." Whatever the ailment is, we wish him the best. Ty France will take over at first base.
In four plate appearances this season, Hosmer has a .750 batting average and a 2.000 OPS.
