Ex-Southridge baseball star Colson Montgomery making jump to Double-A

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WFIE) - Former Southridge baseball standout Colson Montgomery continues to move up the ladder in Minor League Baseball.

Montgomery is making the jump from the High-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox to the Birmingham Barons, which is the Double-A affiliate.

This will be his third team this summer.

He’s hitting .295 with nine home runs and 40 RBI.

Earlier this year, the Holland native had an on-base streak of 50 consecutive games.

At only 20 years old, Montgomery is the top prospect in the White Sox organization.
