The Chicago White Sox surge to .500 as Colson Montgomery powers a turnaround with clutch home runs and difference-making play. Can Montgomery close the gap on Bobby Witt Jr. for top shortstop honors in the American League? Host Todd Welter highlights Montgomery’s immediate impact since his debut, breaking down his offensive production, defensive gains at shortstop, and his emphasis on advanced stats like OPS and win probability added.
