Yankees leave Matt Carpenter off lineup for Game 4 Sunday
The New York Yankees did not list Matt Carpenter in their lineup for Sunday's Game 4 against the Houston Astros.
What It Means:
Carpenter will start Sunday's game on the bench while Isiah Kiner-Falefa joins the lineup at shortstop and bats eighth. Giancarlo Stanton will take Carpenter's spot at designated hitter and Oswaldo Cabreara will cover left field.
Carpenter's crazy comeback season was cut short by a foot injury, but he managed a ridiculous 1.138 OPS in 154 regular season plate appearances. He was hitting .305 and added 15 homers, 28 runs, and 37 RBI to his career totals.
