Exiting starting lineup Benintendi is absent from the lineup Wednesday for Game 3 of the ALDS against the Guardians.

Impact The Guardians are starting a right-handed opener in Daniel Espino, but with either lefties Foster Griffin or Joey Cantillo likely to pitch in bulk relief, the lefty-swinging Benintendi will begin the contest on the bench. Benintendi is 1-for-5 with one RBI and a 2:3 BB:K so far during the postseason. Sam Antonacci is occupying the designated hitter spot, and Randal Grichuk will play left field as the White Sox try to close out the Guardians.

It was the 15th home run of the season for Benintendi and first since Aug. 29 against the Twins. He has a .715 OPS with one steal and 78 RBI across 468 plate appearances this season.

Enduring tough September Benintendi went 0-for-2 on Sunday against the Tigers.

Impact Benintendi grounded out and struck out before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the fourth inning. The performance prolonged his sluggish September, as he now has hit .105 with three doubles, two RBI and six runs scored across 16 games. Benintendi also hasn't been in the lineup since July 22nd against a lefty, making it difficult to trust him for volume or quality performance down the stretch.

Torments Twins at Target Field once again Benintendi went 3-for-4 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Twins.

Impact Incredibly, the veteran outfielder was responsible for almost all of the Chicago offense in the contest. Benintendi recorded the team's only three hits and both its RBI, and Sam Antonacci -- who drew a walk to lead off the game and then came home on a single -- was the only other White Sox player to cross the plate. Benintendi's got a long history of doing damage at Target Field, and in 46 career games at the Twins' home park he's produced a .351/.407/.632 slash line with 14 homers.
