Jimenez, traded by Cubs, wins it for ChiSox in 9th

CHICAGO -- It was a dream come true for Chicago White Sox rookie Eloy Jimenez -- just not the dream he thought he would see to fruition.

Jimenez, 22, beat the team that traded him, with a ninth-inning home run in the White Sox's 3-1 win over the crosstown rival Chicago Cubs.

"When I signed [with the Cubs], I said I wanted to hit one in Wrigley," Jimenez said after the game. "Now with the White Sox, it feels really good."

Jimenez was traded to the White Sox, along with pitcher Dylan Cease, at the All-Star break in July 2017.
