He exited the game after being hit by a pitch. Bart's injury places significant pressure on a White Sox team that was already facing challenges at catcher, as Kyle Teel remains sidelined with injuries. With Bart now likely headed for the injured list, the White Sox are expected to rely on Drew Romo and Edgar Quero behind the plate.
