The White Sox pulled the upset yesterday, 9-4, but the winning streak ends today. Chicago is #26 in team ERA (5.04), while the offense is #20 in runs scored, #21 in on-base percentage, and #19 in slugging. The White Sox are 47-105 against winning teams. Chicago is 5-13 when Lucas Giolito takes the mound against winning teams and he's struggled against the Astros, going 0-3 with a 7.31 ERA against them. Houston is on a 23-8 run at home, ranked second in team ERA (3.31), while the offense is fourth in runs scored, No. 1 in on-base percentage and slugging. The Astros are 40-12 against losing teams, plus 52-16 at home versus teams with losing road records. Houston is on a 9-1 run against Chicago, so back home field. Play Houston.
