Sights and Sounds of Chicago White Sox Summer Camp: Day 5
It was another beautiful day in Chicago for Summer Camp. Many of the beats tweeted out some cool Yermín Mercedes homers, to both left and right. Seek that stuff out, people.
As for today's SoxTV B-roll, there's some tasty stuff packed into less than a couple of minutes as well:
- Gio González throwing live batting practice
- Yasmani Grandal catching
- Kelvin Herrera and Alex Colomé on the mound throwing live BP
- Hobnobbing around the batting cage
- Leury García in repose
- Grandal making a throw to third
- Tim Anderson getting his grounders on
- Long-tossing Carlos Rodón in some glorious green leggings
- Reynaldo López, warming up after already going several innings with daughter Zoe
As always, thanks to the White Sox for giving us a professional glimpse inside of Sox Park!

He was CSN Chicago’s Blackhawks beat writer when their 49-year Stanley Cup drought ended in 2009-10, and took over the White Sox beat after that. He currently is the editor-in-chief of South Side Hit Pen and beat writer for Inside the Rays. He also wrote a book about Ozzie Guillén but is running out of space, so follow him on Twitter @BrettBallantini and he'll probably tell you even more about himself than you ever wanted to know.
