CHICAGO (AP) — Outfielder Jerry Sands has been claimed by the Chicago White Sox off waivers from the Cleveland Indians.

The 29-year-old hit .236 with four homers and 19 RBIs in games with Cleveland last season. He also played in 66 games with Triple-A Columbus.

Sands is a career .238 hitter with nine homers and 50 RBIs over parts of four major-league seasons with the Dodgers (2011-12), Tampa Bay (2014) and the Indians (2015).

Chicago announced the move Wednesday.
