Chicago looks out of gas, ending an eight-game road trip here by losing three in a row by a 19-10 count. The White Sox have dropped six of seven and are 59-124 away against a team with a winning record. The offense is terrible at #25 in runs scored, #21 in on-base percentage and #26 in slugging. Chicago lefty Jose Quintana has already lost to the Tigers this season and has a losing record against them the last four years with Detroit hitting .298 off him in those 70 innings. The White Sox are also 5-22 on the road against a right-handed starter and face Detroit righty Jordan Zimmermann (9-4, 3.95 ERA). He allowed just one run in a pair of rehab starts with Triple-A Toledo and is ready to return to the rotation. This Detroit offense is outstanding, seventh in runs scored, ninth in on-base percentage and fifth in slugging. The Tigers are on a 19-7 run at home, including 9-2 against a southpaw. And the White Sox are 4-9 in the last 13 meetings, including 15-40 at Detroit. Play Detroit.
