Jacob Gonzalez had a full day on Sept. 16 at Guaranteed Rate Field. The shortstop met with Chicago White Sox manager Pedro Grifol, threw a ceremonial first pitch before the team’s game against the Minnesota Twins and even swung by the gift shop. The 2023 first-round MLB draft pick toured the ballpark he’s aiming to call the home after beginning his professional baseball journey. Gonzalez appeared in 34 games with the Arizona Complex League White Sox (four contests) and Class A Kannapolis (30) this season. “It was a lot of fun,” Gonzalez said.
