Donaldson homers in 5th straight vs. White Sox

April 3rd, 2018

TORONTO -- Josh Donaldson appears to have figured out the White Sox pitching staff.
Donaldson homered for the fifth consecutive game against Chicago during Tuesday's 14-5 Blue Jays win at Rogers Centre. The streak dates back to last season. It marks the second time in Donaldson's career that he had a five-game homer streak against the White Sox.
The 32-year-old is the third different Blue Jays player with a streak of at least five games with a home run against a specific opponent. did it twice (Arizona and Philadelphia) while also did it against the Orioles in 2011.
Donaldson's latest shot came in the bottom of the fourth inning with a two-run shot off right-hander . According to Statcast™, Donaldson's second home run of the year was projected to travel 360 feet and left his bat at 94.7 mph.
The show of power came one night after Donaldson homered off the White Sox and pretended to start blowing a whistle as he crossed home plate. The antics were in response to White Sox first-base coach, Daryl Boston, who frequently blows a whistle whenever one of his players makes a good defensive play.

Donaldson changed his walk-up music for Tuesday's game to celebrate the occasion. Instead of one of his regular tunes, Donaldson stepped to the plate to "Blow The Whistle" by Too Short.
