The 2025 Royals-White Sox series is 5-2 in Kansas City's favor, and another series will begin Friday at Kauffman Stadium.

Both teams rested on Thursday; the Royals are coming off a series win in Washington but squandered the opportunity to sweep the Nationals on Wednesday. Game 3 was won by the Nats 8-7 despite 12 hits by the Royals. In that game, Witt Jr. went 2-for-3 and Pasquantino went 2-for-5; Fraizer and India also had two hits each.

The White Sox, meanwhile, have lost eight of their last 10 games; in their last game, on Wednesday, they were shut out by a Tigers rookie, who pitched five scoreless innings followed by great relief. It was a two-hit game for the White Sox, one by Robert, the other by the ninth hitter Mead, and the other by the ninth hitter. In total, the Sox struck out 9 times on Wednesday.

For the White Sox, Aaron Civale, who was battered by the Guardians' offense in his last outing, will pitch against the Royals in Kansas City. Civale allowed eight hits and nine ER, resulting in a 4.91 ERA in 2025.

Our Chicago White Sox vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

Noah Cameron will be the Royals' pitcher for Friday's game, and Kansas City has won four of his last five starts; In the last one, he blanked the Twins for 5.2 innings, showing mastery in getting out of trouble, since Cameron did not allow any runs in that game against the Twins despite having two runners on base in half of the innings he pitched. This is another important series in which the Royals will aim to sweep the last place in the division, attempting a last skirmish for the last Wild Card currently held by the Yankees. Our prediction for Royals vs White Sox is: Royals -1.5.

Prediction:

 

Royals -1.5.
