Teixeira out of tonight's game

According to Newsday's Kat O'Brien, Mark Teixeira has been scratched from tonight's game due to a sore left wrist. The revised lineup has Nick Swisher at first base and Johnny Damon, who was to sit tonight, playing left field.

Cano 2B
Nady RF

UPDATE 7:08 pm EDT

Peter Abraham reports that Teixeira's wrist only bothers him batting right-handed, which would have been the case tonight. He'll be checked out by the Royals' doctors shortly.
