The White Sox reinstated outfielder Willy Garcia from the disabled list Friday before their game against the Tigers at Comerica Park.

Garcia had been out since July 31, when he collided with second baseman Yoan Moncada in the outfield. Garcia suffered a concussion and a fractured jaw, which required surgery to insert a plate. He was sent on a rehabilitation assignment to Class-A Kannapolis for five games during the South Atlantic League playoffs.

Garcia was hitting .258 with two home runs and 11 RBIs in 40 games with the Sox this year.
