Fowler won't start Wednesday's game against the Royals, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old was penciled in to start in right field, but he was a late removal from the starting nine. Fowler is a healthy scratch and won't play Wednesday in protest of the recent police shooting of Jacob Blake. Tommy Edman will move to right field while Matt Carpenter starts at third base.
