White Sox News
The Chicago White Sox saw their magic number drop to 14 in the AL Central despite last night's painful 3-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates. With Cleveland losing to Baltimore, the White Sox remain in the driver’s seat, but they need to turn things around quickly. A disheartening 3-4 record over the past week highlights their struggles, particularly with 10 players on the injured list impacting their depth. Pitcher Davis Martin takes the mound tonight in hopes of halting the slide and keeping postseason dreams alive. As the season winds down, the pressure mounts, and the Sox must harness their potential, especially against teams like the Pirates who are also eyeing a late-season push.
