Colson Montgomery left last night's contest with left side soreness. He felt something after fouling a ball off, so the Chicago White Sox removed him for precautionary measures. Since slugging six homers in nine games to end July, the rookie is batting just .167/.250/.426 over his last 15 games.

The greater concern, hovering over all the chaos of a 5-2 loss, is uncertainty around Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s hamstring.
