Tommy Pham Talks Way Off IL and Hits Go-Ahead Three-Run Home Run

Chicago White Sox outfielder Tommy Pham made a dramatic debut on Wednesday, launching a go-ahead three-run home run in the fifth inning against the Cleveland Guardians. After missing time on the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain, the 38-year-old veteran successfully lobbied general manager Chris Getz in an elevator to enter the starting lineup. The homer came in his third at-bat after previously grounding out and striking out against Parker Messick.
