The Royals will give Massey a break while Nick Loftin fills in for him at second base. Massey had started in each of the Royals' last four games, going 5-for-14 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and an RBI following his return from the 7-day concussion injured list.

Back from concussion
The Royals activated Massey from the 7-day concussion injured list Wednesday.
Analysis
Massey was injured Aug. 25 against Toronto when he fell down making a throw to first base and missed the past six games. The 28-year-old is slashing .276/.310/.444 with 11 home runs, 44 RBI, 46 runs scored, two stolen bases and a 19:62 BB:K across 366 trips to the plate this season and should return to the large side of a platoon at second base now that he's recovered.
