Ibanez replaced Willie Calhoun (forearm) during Saturday's game and went 2-for-4 in an 8-0 win over the Royals.
Calhoun started at designated hitter but left after suffering a forearm fracture when he was hit by a pitch. Ibanez, who was called up last week, appeared for the fifth time in six games since joining the Rangers. He's gone 6-for-19 while playing all three base positions and DH. With Calhoun expected to miss significant time, at-bats at DH should open up for the right-handed hitting Ibanez and eventually lefty David Dahl (ribs), who's working his way back on a rehab assignment.
