Getting planned off day
Muncy (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Analyse
Muncy started Saturday despite feeling under the weather and clubbed an early homer before being lifted in the fourth inning. The ailment apparently isn't responsible for Muncy's absence from the lineup Sunday, however, as he was scheduled for a day off versus Chicago lefty Shota Imanaga. Santiago Espinal is picking up a start at third base in the series finale.

Battling illness, exits in fourth
Muncy was removed from Saturday's game against the Cubs in the fourth inning due to an apparent illness, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Analyse
Manager Dave Roberts mentioned prior to Saturday's game that Muncy was battling an illness, and after Muncy walked in the bottom of the fourth inning, Santiago Espinal came on to run for him. Before leaving, Muncy went 1-for-1 with a two-run homer and a pair of walks. It will be worth monitoring to see if he's available for Sunday's series finale.
