Elehuris Montero arrived at spring training with a lot to prove. The Rockies' rookie has done that — and then some. Montero, 24, not only won the starting third-base job, but he also showed that he might be primed to be a high-impact player. Montero launched his team-leading fifth home run of the Cactus League on Sunday in Colorado's 7-5 loss to Cincinnati.
The Chicago White Sox have dropped their final Sunday Spring Training game against the Rockies 4-2, who were weakened by a split-squad this afternoon. Starting pitchers Lucas Giolito and Austin Gomber both had great outings. The game was tied, 0-0, going into the top of the sixth inning. Giolito started that inning, but allowed a leadoff single to Alan Trejo. After a strikeout, Giolito was replaced by Jake Diekman, who then allowed a double to Michael Toglia, putting the run on Gio's tab. Giolito's final line was 5 1⁄3 innings pitched, four hits, one run, one walk, and six strikeouts. He looked great, and ready for the regular season coming up this week. Gio goes 5.1 w/ 6 K's and 1 BB. No runs,
