The Pittsburgh Pirates will gun on Friday for their fourth win in five games against the cellar-dwelling Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Pirates have emerged as the winner of their recent series with the Milwaukee Brewers following a 1-0 win on Thursday. The Pirates pitching staff surgically shut down the Brewers’ sluggers to improve their ERA to 3.07 over the last five games. Pittsburgh is now just three games below .500 with a 45-48 record, trailing the St. Louis Cardinals by three games and the NL Central leader Milwaukee Brewers by 8.5 games. Meanwhile, the White Sox suffered their fourth loss in five games after dropping another close game against the Minnesota Twins, 3-2. The White Sox are batting .180 with 3.5 runs over their last five assignments. They are also surrendering a 4.34 ERA, with their bullpen conceding 7.71 earned runs per game during this stretch.
Pitchers Matchup: Pirates (Still Undecided) vs. White Sox LHP Garrett Crochet (6-6, 3.08 ERA with 146 strikeouts).

Our Chicago White Sox vs Pittsburgh Pirates Prediction
The Pirates are 6-4 in their previous ten encounters with the White Sox. Pittsburgh has played a much better brand of baseball this week than the White Sox, who at times appeared lost throughout a game. Regardless on who will be the starter for Pittsburgh, I believe the Pirates' superior pitching and effective batting lineup, led by All-Star Bryan Reynolds, will be enough to score a win in the series opener against the White Sox. Our betting prediction for the Pittsburgh Piretes vs. the Chicago White Sox: Bet on the Pirates to win, +136, at DraftKings.
