Red Sox's Xander Bogaerts: Out again Saturday

Bogaerts is out of Saturday's lineup against the Yankees, Tim Britton of The Providence Journal reports.

Eduardo Nunez, who is starting at shortstop and leading off, is hitting .314/.347/.562 with eight home runs in 137 at-bats since joining the Red Sox and Bogaerts is hitting just .230/.310/.354 with two home runs over that stretch. It was reported earlier this week that Bogaerts was still dealing with hand pain from when he was hit by a pitch in early July, so that could also be factoring into him sitting for the second straight game.
