Kike Hernandez Heading To The Bench On Tuesday
3 years agoBoston Red Sox second baseman/outfielder Kike Hernandez is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Wily Peralta and the Detroit Tigers. Marwin Gonzalez is getting the start at second base while Jarren Duran is manning center field and leading off. Hernandez has been providing a great spark at the top of the Red Sox lineup over the past month or so. In July, he slashed .274/.381/.568 with six home runs, 15 RBI and 16 runs. Duran is a threat for playing time, but he's slashed just .150/.186/.300 over 14 games since being called up, so Hernandez should continue to lead off most games for now.
