My 2025 White Sox player review — @soxnerd style — continues with a look at BROOKS BALDWIN:
*Baldwin’s 11 homers in 2025 were the most by a White Sox player who appeared at six positions (2B, SS, 3B, LF, CF, RF) in the field
*Baldwin joins Brian Simmons, Jose Valentin, Greg Norton and Joe Borchard as Sox switch-hitters to homer in a Game 162
*Baldwin’s triple on Sept. 9th was the first by a Sox Baldwin since James Baldwin’s 3-bagger on July 17, 1999 at St. Louis
*On Aug. 18th, Baldwin became the first No. 9 hitter in the 125-year history of the Sox to walk three times and homer in a game
*Baldwin clubbed the Sox first homer at Sacramento’s Sutter Health Park (April 25) and Tampa’s Steinbrenner Field (July 21)
*Baldwin (April 11) and Reid Nichols (May 22, 1986) are the only players in Sox history to play 2B, CF and RF in the same game
