Tim Elko Slugs Second Fall League Home Run
White Sox farmhand Tim Elko can make a baseball disappear in an instant. All he has to do is wave his magic wand. The Ole Miss alumnus turned the trick 18 times this season, which he split between Double-A Birmingham and Triple-A Charlotte. On Tuesday, the 25-year-old Elko was part of Glendale’s five-homer onslaught which finished with a 19-9 Desert Dogs rout. Elko’s blast was the chaser on the back end of Zyhir Hope’s opening shot and gave Glendale an early three-run edge. He finished the day 3-for-6 with the homer and three runs scored.
