The Chicago White Sox hopes to put an end on their 13-game losing skid as they kick off their three-game series with the Boston Red Sox on Thursday at Guaranteed Rate Field. The White Sox’s losing woes extended to 13 games following a 7-6 loss to their intra-city rival, Chicago Cubs, on Wednesday. The White Sox squandered a 5-1 lead and allowed Mike Tauchman to deliver the game winning homer in the 9th inning. The result dealt the White Sox’s its 26th road loss this season, further burying them into the bottom of the American League Central standings with a 15-47 record. The Red Sox, meanwhile, looks to build on their emphatic 9-0 win over the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday. Nick Pivetta and two Red Sox relievers stifled the Braves throughout the game, allowing one hit for nine scoreless innings. Boston improved to 14-18 at home and 31-31 overall, 12.5 games below the best team in the American League East, the New York Yankees (44-19). Pitchers Matchup: Red Sox RHP Tanner Houck (5-5, 1.85 ERA with 75 strikeouts) will take on White Sox RHP Jake Woodford (0-1, 6.23 ERA with 4 strikeouts).
