White Sox's Sam Antonacci: Plays hero in Monday's win
Rotowire
Antonacci went 2-for-4 with three RBI, a run scored and two steals in Monday's 6-5 win over Cleveland.
With his team down to its final out, two runners in scoring position and trailing by a run, Antonacci lined an elevated fastball into center field to drive in both runners and emerge as the walk-off hero. The game-winning knock capped off a productive night in which he also recorded an RBI single and stole two bases in the seventh inning. The left fielder has put together a fantastic June, slashing .328/.438/.557 with three homers, five doubles, nine RBI, 14 runs and three stolen bases across 17 appearances this month. The rookie hasn't looked overmatched since debuting in mid-April, hitting .291/.391/.422 with 16 extra-base hits (four homers), 22 RBI, 37 runs and 11 stolen bases across 59 games.
Antonacci went 2-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk Saturday against the Tigers.

In that span, Antonacci has gone 8-for-19 with three RBI and five runs scored. If he can continue to flash more power, Antonacci has the chance to emerge as a very strong fantasy asset, as he also has 36 runs scored paired with a .293 average and nine stolen bases across 57 contests.

White Sox's Sam Antonacci: Pops third homer
Rotowire
Antonacci went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Yankees.
Antonacci flipped to the bottom of the order with lefty Carlos Rodon on the mound, but he still managed to pop his third home run of the season in the ninth inning against Jake Bird. Antonacci has now gone yard in two of his last three starts, and he also has at least one hit in six of his last seven games. Despite that recent power surge, Antonacci's primary fantasy appeal remains his ability to make consistent contact, get on base and score runs, as he has a .279 batting average with 33 runs scored across 54 games.
Antonacci is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
Derek Hill will receive the starting nod in left field over the left-handed-hitting Antonacci, who will hit the bench while southpaw Chris Sale toes the rubber for Atlanta. Since being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on April 15, Antonacci has gone just 3-for-33 with a 1:10 BB:K in 40 plate appearances versus lefties.

Antonacci has four multi-hit performances in the last eight games and has an .871 OPS during that stretch.
