Bats third against lefty Semien batted third and went 0-for-2 with two walks in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to Houston.
Impact This was the first time the Rangers faced a left-hander since manager Bruce Bochy shifted Semien from leadoff to third against right-handers. It looks like the move will stick against pitchers of both hands. The second baseman is 6-for-29 with four walks, two doubles, one home run, three RBI and two runs scored over eight games as the third-place batter.

Logs two hits, RBI in loss Semien went 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI in Wednesday's 10-1 loss to St. Louis.
Impact Semien drove in the Rangers' lone run with a sixth-inning single. He finished off his best month of the season, batting .287/.374/.479 over 24 games during July. After serving as the team's leadoff hitter all season, Semien batted third in the order for the third consecutive game -- all coming against right-handers. It's unclear if he'll remain the club's leadoff bat against lefties. Texas kicks off a homestand Friday against the Red Sox, who have three right-handers scheduled.

Moves to third in order Semien batted third and went 1-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 6-3 win over the Cardinals.
Impact Texas manager Bruce Bochy tweaked the batting order, having Semien hit third for the first time this season. Josh Smith, who had been batting third, took over as the leadoff hitter. Bochy told Kennedi Landry of MLB.com that the change was part of integrating Josh Jung into the lineup. "We're just tweaking it a little bit here," the manager said. "With Jung coming back, you're gonna see a little different lineup. So we wanted to take a look at it here in this series and maybe farther." It's unclear if the switch was for only right-handers or will be for lefties, too. Jung, who was activated off the 60-day injured list Monday, did not play in that night's game, so more changes could be coming once Jung returns to the field.
