After going 0 for 5 in Saturday's game against Minnesota, Cleveland manager Terry Francona kept outfielder Michael Brantley on the bench Sunday for the Indians.
Brantley dropped his average down to .271 in his last last game. In fact, he's gone just 4 for 30 (.133) over his last eight contests for the Tribe. He does have two homers and six RBI over that span, however.
