Tyler White sitting for Astros versus Red Sox in Game 3

Houston Astros designated hitter/first baseman Tyler White is out of the starting lineup in Game 3 of the American League Championship Series versus the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday.

What It Means:

Jose Altuve will move off second base and handle DH duties for Houston, so White will grab a seat on the bench. White went a combined 0-for-5 with 3 whiffs in the first two games of the series.

White is 3-for-11 (.273) with a double and 5 strikeouts in five games this postseason.
