The Atlanta Braves on Friday recalled former Clemson standout Eli White from Triple-A Gwinnett.
White’s call-up came two days after he went 6 for 7 with two doubles and two home runs in a 21-6 Gwinnett rout of St. Paul on Wednesday in Minnesota. White became the first player in Gwinnett history (since 2009) to finish with six hits in one game. He had seven RBIs in the game.
His call-up by the Braves marks the fifth consecutive season that White will have spent time on an active big league roster.
