New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez is not starting in Friday's matchup with the Oakland Athletics.
Austin Romine will be on squatting duties in place of Sanchez, who appears to just be receiving the day off. Romine will bat ninth versus left-hander Sean Manaea and the Athletics.
Sanchez is hitting .266/.356/.430 with four home runs and 11 RBI's in 21 games (90 plate appearances) this season.
