(670 The Score) White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez is out of the team's lineup once again against the Athletics in Game 2 of their wild-card round series Wednesday afternoon.
Jimenez missed the White Sox's win in Game 1 on Tuesday and continues to deal with a foot sprain. Leury Garcia will once again play left field in place of Jimenez and hit eighth.

Yasmani Grandal will catch in Game 2 after serving as the DH in the opener. Catcher Brian McCann isn't in the lineup in Game 2.
