The White Sox placed outfielder Willy Garcia on the seven-day concussion disabled list Tuesday after his collision with second baseman Yoan Moncada in the sixth inning of Monday's victory over the Blue Jays.
Moncada's right knee hit Garcia on the side of the head while both were trying to make a catch in right field, and Garcia said he lost consciousness. He was diagnosed with a bruised head while Moncada has a bruised knee.
"I got knocked out right away," Garcia said Monday night through a team interpreter.
"I didn't remember what happened until the doctors started asking me questions here, and then I saw the video."
The Sox were already short one right fielder because Avisail Garcia is on the disabled list with a strained ligament in his thumb. To take Willy Garcia's place, the Sox called up 25-year-old infielder/outfielder Nicky Delmonico from Triple-A Charlotte.
It will be the major-league debut for Delmonico, who is hitting .262 with 18 doubles, three triples, 12 home runs, 45 RBIs and 55 runs scored over 99 games with Charlotte this season. He has played 73 games at third base, 13 in left field and three in right field this year.
An Orioles 2011 sixth-round draft pick, he was traded to Milwaukee in 2013 and signed with the White Sox as a minor-league free agent in 2015.
