Gordon Beckham Heats Up. Average now at .267

Gordon Beckham is now adjusting to the White Sox in a big way. During the Chicago White Sox's Monday and Tuesday games, Beckham combined to go 6 of 7 with 1 HR, 4 RBI, 1 walk, and 1 stolen base.

On the season, he's hitting .267 with 2 HR and 13 RBI in 23 games. Considering he started out 2 for 28 (.071) thru his first 8 games, he's doing extremely well to have a .267 average now.

Tuesday night he was moved up in the order from 8th to 7th for the first time.

Why do I keep coming back to Gordo? Because the one thing the baseball program lacks is a flagship Major Leaguer, and because...how can you not like the guy? He's the Diamond Dawg equivalent of David Pollack in terms of charisma and production in Athens.
