Longoria (hamstring) went 0-for-2 with a strikeout in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Royals.
Longoria started at designated hitter, but he gave way to pinch hitter Tommy La Stella in the sixth inning. This was Longoria's first start since Friday as he battled a hamstring injury, and he may be eased back into action to avoid aggravating the issue. The third baseman is slashing .225/.287/.463 with five home runs, 12 RBI and nine runs scored through 87 plate appearances.
