Texas Rangers All-Star shortstop Corey Seager is day-to-day with a sprained right thumb, manager Bruce Bochy said after Friday’s loss to the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers.

Bochy said X-rays were negative. Seager exited the game after diving headfirst into second base on a double in the eighth inning. He finished 2-for-3 with a solo home run in his first game against his former team.

Seager, named to the All-Star team this season for the fourth time in his career, is batting .350 with 15 home runs and 58 RBIs. He missed 31 games earlier this season with a left hamstring strain.

Seager, who spent the first seven seasons of his career with the Dodgers, signed a 10-year, $325 million contract with the Rangers prior to the 2022 season. The 2016 NL Rookie of the Year is a career .292 hitter with 152 home runs and 505 RBIs.
