After spending most of two series out of the Winston-Salem lineup due to a nagging wrist issue, Oscar Colás gave in to the injured list last week.
So far, that extra rest seems to be all he needed. Colás returned to the Winston-Salem lineup on the first possible date in the Dash's game against Rome on Sunday, and he came through with his third homer of the season, and his first on a live webcast (his first two homers took place at historic McCormick Field in Asheville, N.C., which maintains its 1920s charm right down to the lack of video).
Finally got an Oscar Colas dinger on video. Forgot how quick his hands are. #DadGum #Dash up 3-1. #WhiteSox pic.twitter.com/Y0nWsADvzo
