The Chicago White Sox won a slugfest 17-13 on Friday night as Yasmani Grandal went 4-for-6 with two home runs, a double and eight RBIs. The White Sox have had trouble with teams with winning records, but they have feasted on the lesser teams like the Cubs, who are rebuilding again and 23-42 on the road. The White Sox are 43-23 at home and they have won all four meetings with their crosstown rivals this season. Lance Lynn is 10-3 with a 2.20 ERA and he allowed a run on four hits in seven innings against Toronto on Monday. Lynn faced the Cubs once this year and gave up a run on four hits in six innings. Alec Mills was clobbered by Kansas City on Sunday allowing seven runs on 12 hits in four innings. The Cubs are 15-38 as road underdogs and the White Sox are 37-15 their past 52 home games against teams with losing records. Take the White Sox.
