Third to first

• Robin Ventura has no immediate plans to move Adam Dunn from the middle of the White Sox order.

"You consider everything but again, he's swinging it better. I like him in that spot," said Ventura of hitting Dunn fourth. "He does walk.

"If he's going to do that and put up the good at-bats that he's had the last few nights, you have Paulie [Konerko] and [Conor] Gillaspie coming up behind him. He can be dangerous where he gives [Alex] Rios some pitches. Right now it's a good spot for him."

• Left-handed pitcher Leyson Septimo, who has been on the disabled list since March 26 (retroactive to March 22) with a left shoulder strain, has been assigned to Charlotte on an injury rehab assignment.

• The White Sox have made a Major League best 893 quality starts since 2003, four more than the Angels.
