Chicago White Sox
RHP Chris Flexen is scheduled to start game one for the White Sox, despite dropping his last two outings against the Orioles. In his most recent start, Flexen allowed four runs on five hits in 4.2 innings, continuing a streak of dropping his last five games. He currently holds a record of 2-13 with an ERA of 5.29, which has been higher on the road with an average of one home run allowed per start. Flexen's OBA increases over .300 in daytime games. Transitioning from a weak pitching month in August, he will look to turn things around in September. As a team, the White Sox rank last in the league in both runs scored per game and batting average, and struggle particularly when hitting on the road. With a power ranking of 30, their offense and defense both rank near the bottom of the league, and they have a season record of 31-107. The key for the White Sox will be to improve their hitting consistency and performance on the road in order to turn around a challenging season.
