They are desperately trying to make up lost ground in the AL playoff race in what has been an injury-plagued campaign.On the injury front, however, there has been some recent progress.Luis Robert was activated from the IL last week. Outfielders Eloy Jimenez and Adam Engel, catcher Yasmani Grandal and closer Liam Hendriks recently returned to action.But the injury curse has struck again and fans couldn’t be more frustrated. Under-fire skipper Tony La Russa and hitting coach Frank Menecchino will need to keep bearing the brunt of their fury.Jim Rivera@JimRive24616961@whitesox Bases loaded nobody out and you somehow don’t score.

It was all in vain though, as the White Sox collapsed 8-3 against the Kansas City Royals in Game 3 of their four-match series.After the game, a visibly upset-yet-passionate Cueto expressed his opinion on his team’s current state of affairs.“We can’t get comfortable. We need to go out and play and play hard and show what we can do,” Cueto said. “We need to fight. We have to show the fire that we have - if we have any.”The White Sox have now crashed to the .500 mark. They are three games off the final Wild Card spot.
