White provided all of the club's offense from the ninth spot in the batting order, launching a three-run blast off Kyle Bradish in the second inning. The 32-year-old has drawn four straight starts, replacing the injured Ceddanne Rafaela (quadriceps), and is in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, tallying four extra-base hits and eight RBI during that stretch. For the year, he's slashing .246/.291/.404 with six homers, 28 RBI, 27 runs scored and five steals across 196 plate appearances with Atlanta and Boston.

White broke open a scoreless pitchers' duel with a two-out, two-run single in the top of the sixth inning. He was making a third consecutive start in center field in place of Ceddanne Rafaela (quadriceps) and has hit safely in all three. White will draw a fourth consecutive start Sunday.
