Brewers' Scooter Gennett: Sitting out Sunday

Gennett is not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Reds.

Analysis:

Gennett will take a seat for the second time in the three-game series with the Reds as Cincinnati sends southpaw Brandon Finnegan to the rubber. Given his struggles against lefties, manager Craig Counsell opted to turn to Aaron Hill at second base Sunday instead, while Hernan Perez will take Gennett's place in the lineup, playing third base and batting second for the Brewers. With the right-handed Carlos Martinez scheduled to start against the Brewers on Monday, Gennett's absence will likely be a short one.
