The White Sox are sticking with Andrew Vaughn — for now. Vaughn is batting .160 after he went 1 for 4 with a first-inning single and two strikeouts in a 7-2 loss to Milwaukee. The struggling first baseman has just two extra-base hits in his last 12 games. While Vaughn is looking for a turnaround in the majors, Tim Elko is off to a strong start with Triple-A Charlotte. The 26-year-old first baseman is batting .356 with nine homers and 20 RBI. General manager Chris Getz says the team is "more focused on supporting Andrew right now." He calls Vaughn "one of the more unlucky hitters in baseball."
