The Chicago White Sox placed second baseman Nick Madrigal on the 60-day injured list Thursday with a proximal tear of his right hamstring.
General manager Rick Hahn said the Sox still are considering season-ending surgery or rest and rehabilitation for Madrigal’s recovery.
Madrigal attempted to beat Joe Panik’s throw on a grounder to third in the seventh inning and went to ground in the outfield grass after crossing first base. He had to be helped off the field.
García has also aided in the outfield. He’s slashing .234/.291/.297 with six doubles, two triples and 19 RBIs in 49 games.
