Logan Driscoll - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Cracks first career homer Driscoll went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Friday's 3-1 win at Cleveland.

Impact The 26-year-old rookie opened the game's scoring when he slugged a 393-foot, two-run homer off Tanner Bibee in the third inning for his first long ball. Driscoll is currently the reserve backstop in Tampa Bay behind Ben Rortvedt, as he's now hitting .235 (4-for-14) over his first six MLB games. He did flash a solid bat at Triple-A Durham before his promotion, slashing .292/.367/.473 with seven homers across 293 plate appearances, so it's possible the Rays give him more playing time down the stretch.

Back in action Tuesday Driscoll (quad) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Tuesday's game versus the Phillies.

Impact Driscoll had to be pulled from his last start Saturday with a bruised left quad, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in this one. The catcher is 2-for-10 with a couple RBI in his first three major-league games.

Dealing with quad bruise after fall Driscoll was diagnosed with a left quadricep contusion after he was removed in the seventh inning of Saturday's 7-1 win over the Orioles, MLB.com reports.

Impact He suffered the injury in question in the bottom of the fifth inning, when he was tracking a popup off the bat of the Orioles' Adley Rutschman. Driscoll reeled in the catch for the out, but his momentum carried him into a post near the Tampa Bay dugout, and he stumbled down the stairs. The rookie backstop eventually got back on his feet in obvious pain and stayed in the game, but he was pulled from the contest after he was noticeably limping down the first-base line on a two-run infield single in the top of the seventh. The Rays didn't call up another catcher from the minors, so the expectation is that Driscoll will be ready to play the next time he's needed to replace No. 1 backstop Ben Rortvedt.

Impact The 26-year-old has an .840 OPS with seven homers in 70 games with Durham this season, and he'll now join the Rays for his first taste of the big leagues. Driscoll isn't likely to see regular playing time and should operate as the No. 3 catcher while Ben Rortvedt and Alex Jackson are healthy.
