Toronto Blue Jays second baseman/shortstop Gift Ngoepe will return to the bench ahead of Friday's matchup with the Texas Rangers.
Ngoepe got the nod at short on Wednesday, but it was just a spot start, meaning Yangervis Solarte will be back at shortstop in Texas. He will be in the cleanup spot against lefty Matt Moore.
Through 5 games and 11 plate appearances, Ngoepe has 1 hit and 1 run to start the year.
