Happy Sunday, because today is the last Sunday at the rate for the Chicago White Sox this year. They will end their season at home with an afternoon matchup against the San Diego Padres, while looking to steal a series from the Padres, who fight for a play -off place with a magical song of three.
If you are on your way to the Ballpark, it is the day of the Fan Appreciation, with giveaway actions that enter the park (Cool Comiskey Park Retro Radio) and all day too.
Michael King will be on the hill vs Sean Burke in the closer series. King is 4-3 in the season with an ERA of 3.84 and spends most of the season on the IL due to a multitude of injuries, including a long stint due to shoulder inflammation. He has been to the Padres for the last two seasons after he had started his career at the New York Yankees. His last outing was briefly against the New York Mets, and let’s say it was ugly: three innings with 10 hits, eight points earned and two strikeouts. Something to pay attention to is that his trips have been on the shorter side since he returned from injuries, so that the Padres could turn early on their bull pen – bad news for the White Sox, because the San Diego pin is excellent.
Burke is on the hill for the South Siders, with a 4-10 record and 4.29 ERA in the season. He has been a solid starter for the team and appeared in his 27th game of the season. His trips have also been short lately, because he generally struggles with command and walking problems. He went four innings with two hits, one point and four walks against the Baltimore Orioles his last time out.
Chase girl distracts it, followed by Kyle Teel and Colson Montgomery. Miguel Vargas and Edgar Quero follow and Brooks Baldwin is in the middle. Lenyn Sosa, Will Robertson and Dominic Fletcher complete it.
Play time is at 1:10 pm CT. Look at ChSN and listen to WGN this afternoon.
