As injuries test the clubhouse, the next wave steps in and a young team continues to prove that every moment matters.  Go behind-the-scenes as Munetaka Murakami’s injury shifts the tone, Miguel Vargas delivers a dramatic walk-off, and Jacob Gonzalez gets the call he has dreamed about since he was a kid. From his first big league at-bat to his first major-league hit, Gonzalez’s debut shows the emotion, preparation and support system behind a milestone moment.  The episode also follows Braden Montgomery as he joins the White Sox, reflecting on the teammates who helped show him what was possible before creating his own unforgettable moment.
