Chicago White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia will miss the rest of the season after causing a tear in his left shoulder while trying to make a diving catch.

An MRI exam Thursday at Chicago’s Rush University Medical Center revealed a torn labrum. He is scheduled to have surgery next week.

The 22-year-old Garcia was hurt trying to grab DJ LeMahieu’s drive to right field in the sixth inning of Wednesday’s loss at Colorado. The ball was jarred loose when Garcia hit the ground.

Beltre sidelined for now

Adrian Beltre has a mild left quadriceps strain that will keep him out of the lineup for now, but the Texas Rangers plan to wait to see if their third baseman can avoid a trip to the disabled list.

Beltre came out of Tuesday’s game at Boston, then returned home for an MRI and exam by team physician Keith Meister. The Rangers were off Thursday before a 10-day homestand.
