Teahen at first for first time this season

 
There was a new wrinkle to the Royals lineup posted by manager Trey Hillman on Wednesday night. Mark Teahen, for the first time this season, was listed at first base. The move enabled Hillman to play an outfield of Jose Guillen in left, Joey Gathright in center and DeJesus in right. Billy Butler moved back into the designated hitter slot from first base. [link]
