Anthony Volpe was left out of the Yankees lineup due to a gastrointestinal ailment.
HOUSTON — Aaron Boone had been eager to include Jon Berti in the lineup, but he hadn’t anticipated this being the circumstance.
Anthony Volpe was removed from Sunday’s lineup due to an upset stomach, the Yankees announced, as they aimed for a series sweep against the Astros at Minute Maid Park.
The shortstop had kicked off the season impressively, going 4-for-10 with four walks and boasting a 1.371 OPS, which included hitting his first home run on Saturday night.
Volpe, who was among the six Yankees from the Opening Day roster to travel to Mexico City at the end of camp earlier in the week, was substituted in the lineup by Berti, who took on the third base position.
Several members of the Yankees’ contingent that journeyed to Mexico have reportedly been contending with gastrointestinal issues since then, although it wasn’t confirmed whether Volpe’s illness on Sunday was linked to that.
The in-form Oswaldo Cabrera moved from third base to shortstop as part of the lineup adjustment.
