Adam Eaton added another highlight reel catch on Wednesday night to a campaign full of fantastic plays.
When the Rawlings Gold Glove finalists are named next month, Eaton is expected to be among them for the second time in three seasons. But as outstanding as the White Sox outfielder has been, he’s also sure to face a strong challenge from Boston Red Sox right fielder Mookie Betts. With 2 1/2 weeks to go, Eaton and Betts appear to be in a tightly-contested race for the award. One factor that could disrupt Eaton’s chances — besides the fact that Betts is having an MVP-type season at the plate — is that the White Sox outfielder has 336 fewer innings in right field headed into Thursday.
