Gene Honda: The iconic voice of the White Sox through triumphs and trials
For a generation of Chicago baseball fans, there's one booming voice that completes the ballpark experience -- a constant from rough seasons to a magical world championship run. FOX 32’s Tina Nguyen has the story of White Sox Public Address Announcer Gene Honda.
CHICAGO - The White Sox are getting one of their best bats back to the lineup, but are also losing one of their better players to the injured list.
Chicago announced Tuesday Luis Robert Jr. was reinstated from the injured list. In the same move, outfielder Tommy Pham was placed on the 10-day injured list.
Robert Jr. was placed on the injured list on April 6. He suffered a right hip flexor strain at Kansas City the day before. In seven games, Robert Jr. is batting .214 with two doubles, two home runs and four RBI.
Pham was injured sliding into home plate in the eighth inning on Sunday at Milwaukee.
Pham has batted .280 with seven doubles, three home runs and 12 RBI in 33 games since joining the Sox on April 26.
The White Sox are 15-45 this season, the worst start in franchise history through two months. The Sox visit the Cubs Tuesday and Wednesday.
