Despite their struggles, they will look to continue their strong plate presence in this upcoming game. Chicago has a power ranking of 30 and a record of 36-115 this season.

Los Angeles Angels Analysis

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Griffin Canning will be starting the second game for the team, having recently performed well against the White Sox. Despite a rocky month in September, where he has struggled with allowing home runs and hits, Canning is looking to improve on his 5-13 record and 5.35 ERA. Los Angeles has had struggles at the plate this season, currently ranking 27th in the league for offense, but they have shown improvement in hitting home runs, especially at Angel Stadium. The team's power ranking is currently 22, with an overall record of 60-90. In the last three matchups, Chicago has lost all three games against Los Angeles.

Chicago White Sox Hitting Surpasses Season Average in September, Pitcher Canning Shows Vulnerability

The Chicago baseball team has faced challenges this season, but they are currently performing at their peak level and their hitting in September surpasses their overall season average. Additionally, pitcher Canning has displayed vulnerability this month, consistently allowing a high number of home runs throughout the season. This trend may work in favor of the White Sox as they strive to maintain their winning streak. Considering these factors, betting on the Chicago team to win may be a wise decision.
