Kelenic productive in win vs. Cards
Jarred Kelenic went 3-for-4 with a run scored against the Cardinals on Wednesday. After slugging a homer in the first game of Wednesday’s doubleheader against the Cardinals, Kelenic collected three more hits in the second game. His base hit in the eighth inning drove in the only run of the game for Atlanta. The 24-year-old outfielder has performed well since taking over the leadoff spot. He’s slashing .279/.318/.457 with eight homers and three steals across 223 plate appearances.
Sheets considered day-to-day following injury
Gavin Sheets is considered day-to-day after X-rays on his injured heel came back negative on Friday. Sheets was pulled from Wednesday night’s battle against the Dodgers after jamming his left heel while rounding second base after his double. It wouldn’t be surprising to see the White Sox give him a day off on Thursday, but don’t expect the 28-year-old slugger to require any sort of extended absence.
