The Chicago White Sox will vie for a sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates in Game 3 of their weekend series on Sunday at PNC Park.
The White Sox produced 10 runs for the second straight day to earn another win over the skidding Pirates, 10-2, in Saturday’s Game 2. Fresh off an emphatic 10-1 win in Game 1, Chicago leaned on their suddenly prolific offense anew as Mike Tauchman hit a three-run double to highlight a six-run rally in the sixth inning. Chicago trailed 0-3 after four innings, but it flipped the script with a livelier offense during the second half of the game.
The Pirates have now lost 10 of their last 11 games, sinking them further into the bottom of the MLB standings with a measly 39-60 slate. Although Pittsburgh carries a respectable 3.86 ERA this season, its pitching has been atrocious over the past five games. During this stretch, the Pirates have pitched a 7.33 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP. This recent pitching woes have made winning games even tougher for the Pirates, who are one of the worst scoring teams this season at 3.4 runs per game on a .230 BA.

Our Chicago White Sox vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
Why should you pick the White Sox to win? Chicago might have a shot at pulling off a sweep against the Pirates, especially if it continues to find success behind the plate. The White Sox have scored 10 runs in consecutive games, raising their average runs in their last five games to 6.1. The Pirates are sending a serviceable pitcher in Andrew Heaney, to the mound on Sunday. Heaney is 3-0 in his last three starts vs. the White Sox, but he has been dreadful as of late with a 1-4 record and a 7.99 ERA in his last five starts. The White Sox have lost in all five of Aaron Civale’s last five starts, yet I am optimistic that Chicago’s batting lineup will power their team to victory again by coming through with another explosive scoring night.
Our betting prediction for the Chicago White Sox vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates: the White Sox will win.
