Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi had a rare hitless game in High A Salem on Sunday. He won’t have another.

After an 0-for-4 performance that left him with a .341 average, the Red Sox informed Benintendi that he’ll be promoted Monday to Double A Portland. Benintendi, a first-round pick (No. 7 overall) in the 2015 draft, wraps up his brief time in the Carolina League with a .341 average, .413 OBP, and .563 slugging percentage. In 34 games, he had 21 extra-base hits (13 doubles, 7 triples, 1 homer), 15 walks, and just nine strikeouts.

Benintendi, 21, is viewed as one of the most advanced hitters to enter the Red Sox system in years. No top Red Sox position player taken with a top draft pick has moved as quickly to Double A since Dustin Pedroia opened his first full pro season with Portland in 2005.
