Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Alika Williams is not in the lineup again for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Josiah Gray and the Washington Nationals.
What It Means:
Williams is absent for a second consecutive game. Liover Peguero will start at shortstop and hit sixth on Thursday afternoon.
