Colson Montgomery achieves White Sox history in loss to Yankees

Just over a year from his MLB debut, Colson Montgomery accomplished a career-first and made franchise history all in the same game. 

On Wednesday, in an effort that ended up not being enough as the Chicago White Sox lost 10-5 to the Yankees in New York, Montgomery crushed two home runs and drove in four of his team's five runs. 

Montgomery's two-homer night was the first multi-homer performance of his young career, connecting on long balls in both the third and eighth innings. He also reached 40 career home runs in 140 games with the White Sox, becoming the fastest to the milestone in franchise history. 

Colson Montgomery reached a personal milestone thanks to his first multi-homer game 

First, Montgomery, 24, went yard with two outs and two base runners aboard for a three-run blast. Then, he did it again in his last at-bat of the night. He rocketed a 1-1 pitch into the stands in deep right field to provide some hope for Chicago despite the large deficit. 

Montgomery's two home runs in the second day of the White Sox series in New York give him three in as many games. He now has 19 on the year with 44 RBIs in 69 games so far in 2026.
