The Chicago White Sox will take on the Detroit Tigers at the Guaranteed Rate Field on Sunday (September 25) in MLB action.
The Tigers have surprised by beating their opponents two games in a row and wrapping up the series. That has plunged the White Sox's playoff hopes into uncertainty.
The White Sox have lost their last five games on the spin. Their entire season depends on the upcoming weeks, where every undesired result piles on more pressure, and their chances of booking a playoff berth become slimmer.
The White Sox’s overall season record has dropped to 76-76. Before their run of defeats, they were sitting comfortably in second place in the AL Central standings. However, the gap between them and the Twins is getting closer.
The Twins are now only two games behind, following their win against the Angels. They themselves are coming off a five-game losing streak in the race for the wildcard berth.

They were looking lifeless and flat up till the last few weeks but are now 59-92 overall, still sitting at the bottom of the Al Central standings.
