Winker Goes Long 3 Times: Jesse Winker brutalized the Chicago (W) White Sox pitching staff, launching three home runs in today's 10-6 victory at Guaranteed Rate Field. The St. Louis Cardinals left fielder was red-hot, the ball just exploding off his bat all day.

"I don't try to hit homers," he said later. "I try to go out there and put a good swing on the ball, and sometimes it is going to go out of the park. I didn't try to hit the first one or the second one or the third one."

For the game, he went 4-for-4 with 6 RBIs and 4 runs scored.

"Too much Jesse Winker today," White Sox manager Kris Motta said. "That's my assessment of the game. That's what our problems boiled down to."

Jesse Winker walked in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Dario Agrazal in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Lou Trivino in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Cole Sulser in the 9th.

Hitting .274 to date, Winker has 22 home runs and 67 RBIs. He has played in 83 games.
