Series Preview: Tigers vs. White Sox

by | Aug 22, 2024

The White Sox head back home this weekend to take on the Tigers in a 4-game series.

Fresh off a win in which they looked like a competent Major League baseball team, the White Sox come back home to Guaranteed Rate Field to take on the middling Tigers.

Friday: Elvis Night / Post-Game Fireworks

Saturday: White Sox Football Jersey / Faith and Family Night

Sunday: Family Sunday

Monday: Southside Monday

Fun Fact

Comiskey Park’s Opening Day: The very first game played at the original Comiskey Park – which opened in 1910 – was between the White Sox and the Tigers. The White Sox won the game 2-0.

Prediction

The Tigers have a couple of TBDs – and Skubal is going on Saturday for a certain White Sox loss. But, I think the Sox take one of these games – the last one. Martin has been pretty good, and the Tigers will probably be excited to get out of Chicago after playing the Northsiders this week.

Poll
