Chicago White Sox rookie Colson Montgomery revealed his Players’ Weekend custom bat on Thursday, and it didn’t disappoint.
Montgomery, the No. 22 overall pick by the White Sox in the 2021 Major League Baseball draft, was promoted to the big leagues on July 4. Entering Sunday, the 23-year-old shortstop was slashing .234/ .296/ .524/ .820 with 10 home runs and 28 RBIs in his debut season.
Montgomery has quickly become a fan favorite in Chicago. Part of Montgomery’s appeal is that he’s a star from a small town, and he hasn’t forgotten his roots.
