Luis Robert Jr. Belts Clutch Homer In Win
10 months agoChicago White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-7 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. In an entertaining battle between two of MLB's most underperforming teams, the 25-year-old tied the contest 7-7 with a seventh-inning bomb. A bases-loaded walk later in the frame would give the White Sox the lead and ultimately result in the victory. After a quiet April, Robert is slashing .299/.367/.652 with 21 jacks, 37 RBI, and seven stolen bases over 252 plate appearances since May 2. The speedy slugger's MVP-level performance has represented a shining light on a dim array of vast Chicago disappointments. Fantasy managers hope Robert can stay healthy and deliver continued prosperity during the second half of the campaign.
