Gordon Beckham: Don’t you even think of stealing when Adam Dunn is up

Padilla:

Adam Dunn’s first home run in a Chicago White Sox uniform was a majestic blast for everybody except teammate Gordon Beckham. Dunn had four RBIs and a homer in his White Sox debut.

“It went so high I didn’t know where it went; I was stealing on the play,” Beckham said. “He’s a force. You don’t want people to get on in front of Adam Dunn because he can go deep any time and under any conditions. It’s good to have him. He puts fear in opposing team and that is invaluable.”
