As baseball is still a question mark, White Sox slugger Eloy Jimenez is using his time to donate to some local heroes.

What a great gesture by Eloy sending cash, gift cards, and memorabilia to some essential workers in our city. It’s encouraging how Eloy has embraced being a South Sider since being traded from the North Side. He has been a great presence on and off the field for the White Sox.
