Brewers' Jake Bauers: On bench versus lefty

Bauers is not in the Brewers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rays.

Southpaw Tyler Alexander will start on the mound Tuesday for Tampa Bay, which means the lefty-hitting Bauers will begin the game on the bench. Rhys Hoskins will get the start at first base and Gary Sanchez will serve as the DH for Milwaukee. However, Bauer will have competition for playing time at first base going forward with the arrival of Tyler Black, who was promoted from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.
