White Sox's Tristan Peters: On bench for second time in series
Rotowire
Peters is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.
The left-handed hitter's absence isn't surprising against southpaw Jeffrey Springs, but Peters also hit the bench for a matchup against righty Aaron Civale on Friday.
