DH Matt Davidson got the White Sox on the board with a two-run homer off of Indians starter Danny Salazar Friday.

The last was Davidson's teammate, Jose Abreu, who hit 36 home runs as a rookie in 2014. "Obviously, he's a young man with some pop," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said. "He got a fastball up, it almost was chest-high it seems like. He got to it and put a pretty good charge into it. That's what he can do. If he gets a pitch over the plate, elevated, something that he can handle, he puts a good swing on it, he's got the ability to hit the ball out of the park."
