The Chicago White Sox (45-40, 17-26 Away) will try to bounce back from losing the series finale vs. the Orioles yesterday in Baltimore (6-1) when they face off with the Cleveland Guardians (45-42, 22-20 Home) at Progressive Field. Game time for this AL Central battle is scheduled for 6:40 p.m. EST with coverage provided by MLB.TV.
Cleveland improved to 3-3 in their current homestand with a 9-4 win over the Texas Rangers yesterday, scoring as much in the second inning as they had scored in the previous two games, both losses (6-3 and 4-2).
Chicago appears to have a pitching advantage in Davis Martin. But while he has been lights out at home, Martin has had some issues in road games where he has allowed 27 runs in nine starts (52 innings) compared to four runs in seven starts (41 innings) at home.
As for Cleveland starter Slade Cecconi, he had his second shutout of the season in his last start, holding Seattle to three hits and no runs over six innings on June 27.

Our Cleveland Guardians vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
If Davis Martin was pitching at home, it would be an easy decision: take the White Sox to win and maybe even to cover. But since he is not, the OVER is a much more enticing wager. Chicago has been averaging around 7-8 runs a game over the last week. As for the Guardians, they have averaged just over four runs a game over the last week. But I think they’ll almost certainly have a better day against a pitcher who struggles away from home in Martin.
