Picking up fifth straight start Sosa will start at third base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Giants.

Sosa has produced a lowly .309 OPS since being recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on July 30, but Vargas has gone hitless in his last four starts and has performed almost equally poorly (.385 OPS) since making his White Sox debut that same date.
