The White Sox are coming into this game with a 28-31 record overall and they are 15-14 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 2 of their last 3 games but are coming into this one off of a win in their last game which snapped a 2 game losing streak that they were on. They just lost their 3-game series against the Texas Rangers 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the Tigers on Wednesday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Wednesday with the 2nd game still to be played on Tuesday. Dylan Cease is the starting pitcher for them on Tuesday while Vince Velasquez will likely be on the mound for them here on Wednesday. He is 2-3 with a 5.30 ERA this season. His team lost 2 of their last 3 games this season with him starting. In his last start, he allowed 0 ER, 0 HRs, and 1 BB with 5 Ks on 0 hits in 3 IP against the Boston Red Sox. They scored 23 runs in their last series averaging just under 8 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 22 runs against them averaging just over 7 runs allowed per game.

 

The Tigers are coming into this game with a 24-36 record overall and they are 16-18 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 3 of their last 4 games and are coming into this one on a 2 game losing streak. They just lost their 3-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1 and they are playing the series finale of a 3-game series with the White Sox on Wednesday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Wednesday with the 2nd game still to be played on Tuesday. Drew Hutchison is the starting pitcher for them on Tuesday while rookie pitcher Alex Faedo will be on the mound for them here on Wednesday. He is 1-2 with a 2.92 ERA this season. His team won 4 of their last 5 games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 1 earned run, 1 homer, and 1 BB with 7 strikeouts on 3 hits in 5 innings played against the Pittsburgh Pirates. They scored 4 runs in their last series averaging just over 1 run scored per game in that span and they allowed 17 runs against them averaging just under 6 runs allowed per game.

 

The Tigers are coming into this game not playing very well recently or this season but they have been a pretty good team at home where they are in this series. They have a rookie on the mound here in Faedo but he has been pitching well this season and could give the White Sox some trouble here. They are going up against a White Sox team that has been playing much better recently, winning more games and they have really been scoring a lot more runs as well as their offense is heating up. They do not have the best pitching staff though and no matter how well their starting pitcher is throwing, their bullpen has blown many games for them and they always put them at risk to lose every game. The Tigers have a guy who has been pretty good this season and they will likely take advantage of the bad pitching by the White Sox here. The best bet here is on the Tigers to win this game.
