The Yankees make the trip back to the Stadium to welcome the White Sox for a three-game set starting Monday. Last time in Chicago, New York completed a sweep, outscoring the Pale Hose 18-6 in the series.
The Yankees are hot, as they have won eight of their last nine games including a four-game sweep of the Orioles most recently. They are creeping in the division, as the skidding Red Sox coughed up three and a half games this weekend as a result of getting swept by the Rays. Entering play on Monday, the Bombers sit six games back and five in the loss column with over a month still left to play, which includes six head-to-head contests against Boston
The White Sox have played some good baseball as of late, going 10-5 since getting swept by the Yanks at the beginning of August.
