This is particularly devastating for Will Venable’s ChiSox who were riding a four-game win streak before they were unable to capitalize and secure their first poseason series victory at home since *checks notes* 1906.
However, the season isn’t over yet.
Yes, their homestand was disappointing — Chicago’s depleted pitching staff came up short and the team lost 9-3 and 9-5 in Games 3 and 4 at Rate Field after the Guardians got their act together — but tonight’s contest is winner-takes-all.
It all comes down to these nine innings. This is what October Soxtober baseball is all about.
Don’t miss out.
