Royals' Matt Beaty: Sits against righty

Beaty is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

The lefty-hitting Beaty is on the bench for the third straight game, with two of those absences having come against right-handed starting pitchers. Beaty had a brief run as a strong-side platoon player at first base to close out August, but the Royals appear to have instead opted for a committee approach to the position.
