Summary
Munetaka Murakami is rewriting rookie history with the White Sox, matching Frank Thomas’ legendary 1991 stats in just 55 games—42 walks, .561 slugging percentage—and already leading the AL in homers and RBIs. With 20 bombs and 41 RBIs, he’s crushing expectations and poised for Rookie of the Year. The big question? Will Chicago lock him down long-term to fill those Frank Thomas-sized shoes?
