DeLoach went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a run scored during Thursday's 7-0 win over the Angels.

However, the 25-year-old rookie has improved significantly at the plate during his current MLB stint, going 8-for-25 (.229) with five runs and three RBI in 10 games.

White Sox's Zach DeLoach: Gets call from Triple-A
Rotowire
The White Sox recalled DeLoach from Triple-A Charlotte ahead of Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Mets. He entered the game as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the eighth and grounded out in his lone at-bat.
DeLoach is back up with the White Sox for the third time this season after going 3-for-22 with a 3:9 BB:K between his previous two stints. As a left-handed batter, DeLoach won't be a candidate for a platoon role, and he likely won't be in the mix for regular at-bats against right-handed pitching either while all of Andrew Benintendi, Luis Robert and Dominic Fletcher are healthy and available.
