CLEVELAND -- Corey Seager is back on the injured list.
The Texas Rangers shortstop was placed on the 10-day injured list before Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Guardians because of lower back inflammation.
Seager was in the lineup for Tuesday's game but was removed before his first at-bat when his back flared up during warmups.
He returned from the IL on June 25 after missing 12 games because of a concussion he sustained in a home plate collision with Kansas City catcher Carter Jensen on June 11.
The 32-year-old Seager also missed 19 games from mid-May through early June because of back problems.
Seager is batting .182 with 10 homers and 25 RBI in 50 games. The five-time All-Star went 1 for 10 but walked five times in 15 at-bats since returning from his concussion.
Texas called up infielder Josh Smith recalled from Triple-A Round Rock to fill Seager's roster spot.
