CHICAGO -- White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. was out of the starting lineup for Sunday's 12-9 win over the Tampa Bay Rays, one day after he was pulled from a loss to the Rays because he failed to hustle up the line on a grounder.
Robert jogged to first after he bounced to pitcher Calvin Faucher in the first inning Saturday, leading to a round of boos from the home crowd. First-year manager Pedro Grifol replaced Robert with a pinch hitter in the second.
The White Sox went on to a 12-3 loss to the Rays, extending their slide to 10 in a row.
