It hasn’t all been sunshine and daisies on Chicago’s South Side this season.
But now, deep into June, the sliding windows are thrown wide open and a stiff summer breeze blows in off the lake as the Sox Bus rattles and wheezes and rolls down Lake Shore Drive. At the wheel? Andrew Vaughn, the wide-eyed duct tape that’s holding this team together.
The 24-year-old has cruised from first base to left field to DH, consistently driving in runs and stringing together powerhouse, multi-hit games. For example, last week Vaughn clubbed four hits to help lift the Sox to a 8-7 victory over the visiting Toronto Blue Jays.
