Gardner is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Nationals, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
With no designated hitter spot available in Washington's National League ballpark, Gardner will take a seat on the bench as the Yankees go with right-handed-hitting Giancarlo Stanton against left-hander Gio Gonzalez. The veteran outfielder has picked it up recently after a slow start to the season, collecting eight hits to go with a 6:3 BB:K over his past five games.
