Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi is absent from the team's lineup on Sunday versus the Houston Astros.
As Benintendi takes a breather this afternoon, Rajai Davis will start in left and lead the game off for Boston.
In his first full MLB season, Benintendi has bombed 20 home runs with a .338 wOBA in 151 games. His 0.54 nERD ranks 3rd among all Red Sox hitters in 2017.
