The White Sox exchanged Garcias in right field Thursday night, and Willy Garcia did his best to make his return worthwhile during a 6-3 loss to the Cubs at Guaranteed Rate Field.

The Sox recalled Garcia from Triple-A Charlotte before the fourth game of the City Series to take the place of Avisail Garcia, who was placed on the disabled list with a strained ligament in his right thumb.

Willy Garcia started his night by making a running catch of Kris Bryant's fly ball to the fence to end the third inning.
