Munetaka Murakami has a standout performance for the Chicago White Sox on his bobblehead day against the Houston Astros. Multiple outlets report that the game features a promotional giveaway celebrating Murakami, with manager Will Venable expressing excitement beforehand. Murakami responds with two home runs and a career-high offensive output, driving in six runs, as the White Sox win decisively, 12-3. Attendance is reported at 32,581 at Rate Field. The Athletic adds that Murakami had told fans ahead of the regular season that he had power, a message reflected in his performance Sunday. Yahoo Sports also notes that Murakami’s parents attend the game and that, by this point in the season, he has hit 22 home runs. Across the accounts, the central points are consistent: the bobblehead event is tied to Murakami, he homers twice, records a career-high for RBIs, and the White Sox secure a large-margin victory over Houston.
