Black is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
Black will hit the bench for a second straight day, this time sitting against a right-handed primary pitcher in Zack Littell after he was held out of the lineup against lefty Foster Griffin on Saturday. Though he's produced a 1.074 OPS in six games since being called up from Triple-A Nashville on April 24, Black could soon be headed back to the minors with Andrew Vaughn (hand) expected back from the injured list Monday.
