ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Tampa Bay Rays two-way player Brendan McKay is scheduled to make his hitting debut against the Baltimore Orioles two days after winning his first appearance as a starting pitcher.
McKay was listed on the lineup as the designated hitter for Monday night’s game and batting eighth.
The left-hander took a perfect game into the sixth in his big league debut Saturday against Texas. He left after allowing one hit over six scoreless innings.
