France is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

For the second day in a row, France will head to the bench against a righty starter in Drew Rasmussen. The Twins haven't indicated that France is dealing with an injury, so he could simply be moving into the short side of a platoon at first base with the left-handed-hitting Kody Clemens. Since his six-game hitting streak came to an end June 7, France is slashing a woeful .209/.269/.337 with two home runs, 10 runs and nine RBI over 26 games.
