The White Sox placed second baseman Brett Lawrie on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left hamstring before Wednesday’s game against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
The Sox called up Carlos Sanchez to take Lawrie’s place. Lawrie was placed on the DL retroactive to July 22 after exiting Thursday’s game with the injury.
Sox manager Robin Ventura said earlier this week that Lawrie was available off the bench, but he had a setback Tuesday. Lawrie was hitting .248 with 22 doubles, 12 home runs and 36 RBIs over 94 games this season.
