The White Sox acquired Lee, 25, from the Houston Astros in exchange for Kendall Graveman. The White Sox dealt the right-handed reliever, along with five other pitchers, during a deadline selloff.
So far, Lee has struggled in the major leagues. He's batting under .100 in 28 at-bats since joining the White Sox.
Hopefully, his long ball against the Royals lifts him out of the slump.
