Episode Details

Roch Cholowsky, UCLA’s standout slugger, just became the Chicago White Sox’s first-ever draft pick—making history as the third player in franchise history to go No. 1 overall and the first UCLA player ever to land the top spot since Gerrit Cole. Selected in Philadelphia, the emotional moment—captured with family by his side—showed just how much faith the White Sox have in his future. With a reported signing bonus over $11 million, Cholowsky’s stellar three-year UCLA career, including two Big Ten Player of the Year honors and Golden Spikes finalist status, proved his elite status. He’s already a fan of Chicago, calling the city and team a perfect fit, and is ready to step into the big leagues after rising from Hamilton High School in Arizona.
