Welcome y’all, it’s Country Music Night at the ballpark, as the White Sox (28-35) take on the Marlins (35-28) in the opener of this three-game series. The Sox split the doubleheader yesterday with the Yankees and are now in third place in the AL Central, only 3.5 games back of the now under-.500 Minnesota Twins.
Onto the Marlins: The Fishes are hot, hot, hot, winning six in a row and eight of their last 10. The Sox hitters face Eury Pérez, who last time out against the A’s pitched five innings of shutout baseball with five Ks on the night.
