They just split their 2-game series against the Washington Nationals 1-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 4-game series with the White Sox on Sunday. This will be the 4th game of the series on Sunday with the 3rd game still to be played on Saturday. Spenser Watkins is the starting pitcher for them on Saturday while Jordan Lyles is on the mound for them here on Sunday. He is 4-6 with a 4.92 ERA this season. His team lost 4 of their last 5 games this season with him starting. In his last start, he allowed 2 ER, 0 HRs, and 3 BB with 4 Ks on 5 hits in 6.1 IP against the Washington Nationals. They scored 7 runs in their last series averaging 3.5 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 3 runs against them averaging 1.5 runs allowed per game.

 

The White Sox are coming into this game with a 33-36 record overall and they are 15-20 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are coming into this game on a 3 game losing streak. They just won their 3-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 4-game series with the Orioles on Sunday. This will be the 4th game of the series on Sunday with the 3rd game still to be played on Saturday. Lance Lynn is the starting pitcher for them on Saturday while Dylan Cease will be on the mound for them here on Sunday. He is 5-3 with a 2.68 ERA this season. His team won 4 of their last 5 games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 0 earned runs, 0 homers, and 2 BB with 11 strikeouts on 1 hit in 6 innings played against the Toronto Blue Jays. They scored 20 runs in their last series averaging just under 7 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 22 runs against them averaging just over 7 runs allowed per game.

 

The White Sox are coming into this game as a big favorite with the current betting odds. They have not been playing well recently as they have lost 2 games in this series to the Orioles already. They cannot be losing these games to a bad team like the Orioles who have been awful on the road this season so the White Sox will be hungry to bounce back here at home and get a win. They have a good chance of doing that with Cease on the mound here. He had a rough start to the season but has been pitching much better in his recent starts and he is coming off of another great start in his last game. The Orioles have Lyles pitching here and he has not been good all season as he has been allowing a lot of runs in his starts. The White Sox came into this series hitting the ball very well as they were scoring a lot and they should be able to do that on Lyles here at home. The best bet here is on the White Sox to win this game on the runline.
