Rain postpones the start of Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jiménez’s rehab assignment with Class A Winston-Salem

Friday’s game between the Dash and Hickory in Winston-Salem, N.C., was postponed because of rain. It will be made up as part of a doubleheader beginning at 3:30 p.m. CT on Saturday.

Jiménez joined Winston-Salem on Friday as he recovers from a ruptured left pectoral tendon suffered during a March 24 Cactus League game against the Oakland Athletics at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Ariz., while attempting to rob Sean Murphy of a home run.

“(The) fact he’s actually out there playing games is a big step in the right direction,” Sox manager Tony La Russa said before Friday’s game against the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards.
