Chicago at Kansas City

The young Chicago White Sox have been impressive, especially on the road (13-6). The team is in first place and the offense is fifth in the league in runs scored, Top 10 in on-base percentage, third in slugging. Starter Lucas Giolito (3.14 ERA) has been terrific, with 34 strikeouts in his last three starts, yielding only seven hits and three walks. Last-place Kansas City is #25 in runs scored, #27 in on-base percentage, on a 2-7 slide. The pitching staff has been getting crushed allowing 33 runs the last four games (all losses). The White Sox have won the first two games of the series and are on a 7-1 run against the Royals. Play Chicago.
