Braden Montgomery, the Chicago White Sox's No. 33 prospect, delivered his best performance of the season on Sunday, hitting two home runs in a Double-A Birmingham game. This was Montgomery's second multi-homer game as a professional, with the first occurring on May 6, 2025, for High-A Winston-Salem.
Montgomery blasted his first homer of the campaign in the season opener on April 3. He was acquired by the White Sox from the Red Sox in the trade that sent Garrett Crochet to Chicago. Montgomery, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound outfielder, suffered a fractured right foot during his junior season, preventing him from playing in Boston's system after being drafted 12th overall in the 2024 MLB Draft.
