The LaRoche Explanation

Players and staff in the White Sox clubhouse complained to Kenny Williams about Adam LaRoche having his son Drake with him constantly:

And while the early evidence frames this as a Williams vs. LaRoche battle over clubhouse time for LaRoche’s son, multiple baseball officials with direct knowledge of the Adam LaRoche brouhaha told USA TODAY Sports a different tale.

Several players and staff members privately complained to White Sox management recently about the constant presence of LaRoche’s 14-year-old son, Drake, in the clubhouse. Drake LaRoche, multiple people say, was with the team about 120 games during the 2015 season.

Which makes the most sense. As we’ve seen this week, this is very strong support for LaRoche and his son in the White Sox club house. Kenny Williams took the heat to keep the club house together. It will be interesting to see how this plays out the rest of the season.
