White Sox Minor Keys: April 11, 2026

For all the concern about the White Sox deploying two catchers in the same lineup when Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero are healthy, the Charlotte Knights have taken it up a notch.

Saturday's lineup against Memphis featured all three of their catchers -- Drew Romo behind the plate, Josh Breaux at DH, and Korey Lee in right field. If the White Sox's lineup looks weird when they face a lefty, it's even stranger one level down due to the shortage of righties at nearly every other position.

Credit Korey Lee for seeing an opportunity where his coaches might see desperation.

Memphis 6, Charlotte 4

• Jarred Kelenic pinch-hit and struck out.
• Jacob Gonzalez was 0-for-2 with two walks and a strikeout.
• Sam Antonacci walked in both plate appearances after entering as a pinch-hitter. He handled third base.
• Tanner McDougal's best Triple-A start yet: 6 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 8 K, 1 HR
• Tyler Schweitzer let his Charlotte guard down: 2 IP, 4 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 1 BB, 0 K, 1 HR

Notes:

*William Bergolla Jr. was placed on the 7-day injured list retroactive to Friday with what they were calling a bruised shin after his collision with Sam Antonacci.

Birmingham 5, Chattanooga 4

• Rikuu Nishida went 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts.
• Braden Montgomery was 1-for-3 with a sac fly and a strikeout.
