White Sox Dominating Marlins In Rare Meetings

The Chicago White Sox probably wish they met the Miami Marlins more often, as the ChiSox have won the past five meetings between the two clubs. However, those five games date all the way back to 2013. The White Sox will look to sweep the Marlins when they close out their series Sunday.

SHARK BITES
  • The Marlins are 1-4 SU and against the runline in their past five games.
  • The White Sox are 6-13 SU in their past 19 games on the road.
  • Chris Sale is 6-2 with a 2.54 ERA lifetime in interleague games.

Chris Sale has become a strikeout machine once again after the CY Young candidate had several tough games. Sale has a 3.00 ERA with a 17/2 strikeout-to-walk ratio in his past two starts, both significant improvements over his 4.74 ERA and 15/8 K-to-BB ratio in his previous three.

When you think of aces you don’t normally think of Tom Koehler, but he has been one of the best pitchers in baseball recently. Koehler is 3-0 with a 0.67 ERA in his past four starts – which includes two starts of six-plus innings of no-run ball.
