Third catcher hits three-run homer to create lead for Carlos Rodon to put away
For a couple of below-.500 teams, September games don't offer much meaning.
For players on those below-.500 teams, some of these games mean everything.
Enter Rob Brantly. The White Sox' third catcher was No. 1 on the call sheet tonight, as he hit a three-run homer off Carlos Carrasco while catching seven innings of one-run ball by Carlos Rodon for a satisfying victory.
Brantly was 0-for-4 in his first two games in a White Sox uniform, but he made his first hit count.
