White Sox increase AL wild-card lead with win over Tigers

CHICAGO — Sean Burke pitched six effective innings, Miguel Vargas homered and the Chicago White Sox topped the Detroit Tigers 3-1 on Saturday for a sorely needed victory.

Burke digs deep as White Sox claw past Tigers, 3-1

Sean Burke gave the White Sox a chance to win Saturday afternoon. His offense didn’t give him much support, but it gave him just enough. The righthander came out firing, mowing through the first with a fly out and back-to-back punchouts. The knuckle curve had bite, and he breezed through the first three innings on […]

Blue Jays’ Andres Gimenez returns to lineup against Rangers

The Toronto Blue Jays have their starting shortstop back in the fold. Andrés Giménez is set to return to Toronto’s lineup for Saturday’s game against the Texas Rangers, batting eighth after missing a pair of contests with hamstring soreness. The 28-year-old initially exited Tuesday’s game against the Detroit Tigers with the injury in the eighth inning before sitting out Wednesday and Friday. Although he didn’t make it into Friday’s series opener against the Rangers, Blue Jays manager John Schn...

White Sox 3, Tigers 1: Quality start equals quality win

A White Sox pitcher completed six innings for the first time in 27 games, and at no expense to anything but the gray hair count on Will Venable's head. Burke had to minimize the damage from a pair of bases loaded situations in his final two innings of work, but he was able to get through two-thirds of the game with just one run allowed, while a White Sox that was limited to just four hits converted every opportunity it generated. Basically, it was the photo negative image of the average Whit...

Tigers strand too many in loss to the White Sox

Jackson Jobe threw a fairly good game on Saturday, matching his career high strikeouts. Unfortunately, the White Sox capitalized on their opportunities, while the Tigers had traffic all game long but couldn’t cash in their chances. They dropped the third of four on the south side by a 3-1 margin, and will look to split […]

White Sox’s Tristan Peters gets update after injury scare vs. Tigers

The Chicago White Sox began Saturday one game out of the second seed in the American League, which guarantees a first-round bye in the playoffs, and one game clear of falling into a tie for the final Wild Card slot.

White Sox’s Munetaka Murakami knows jobs not finished despite Tigers heroics

The Chicago White Sox regained a share of the NL Central lead on Thursday with a 3-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers. One swing of Munetaka Murakami’s bat made all the difference for Chicago.

What happened to Kyle Finnegan this season and is there a fix?

When the Detroit Tigers signed reliever Kyle Finnegan to a two-year, $19 million contract last offseason, it seemed like a decent idea. Scott Harris and Jeff Greenberg were well aware that their relief corps was perilously thin, relying heavily on Will Vest turning in a fourth straight excellent season. That’s generally asking a lot of […]

Tigers look to take series lead over White Sox on Saturday

The Detroit Tigers scored a huge comeback victory on Friday night, scoring five in the eighth inning to tie their four-game weekend series with the Chicago White Sox, 11-8. It was a bullpen day for the good guys — which surrendered just two earned runs — while home runs by Hao-Yu Lee and Riley Greene […]

Tigers 11, White Sox 8: Bullpen reaches breaking point

From here on out, Will Venable's only pathway to victory might require a starting pitcher to go six innings. The White Sox were able to nurse a two-run lead across the final 4 ⅓ innings of Thursday night's game against the Tigers , but even though they had a six-run cushion to work with, another five innings tonight proved to be an impossible ask. Not only did the White Sox pitching staff blow an 8-2 lead, but their offense faced a three-run deficit by the bottom of the eighth. Paired with...

White Sox’s Tristan Peters exits vs. Tigers after collision with wall

For the second straight day, a Canadian big-leaguer was forced to leave a game with a scary injury. On Friday, it was Chicago White Sox right fielder Tristan Peters who exited, departing against the Detroit Tigers after colliding with the wall in the fifth inning. Peters was racing back as he tracked a fly ball from Kevin McGonigle, and after missing the catch, his momentum carried him into a pole in the fence. The Winkler, Man., native was able to walk off under his own power after a visit fr...

Late homers spark huge comeback win in Chicago

With their playoff hopes hanging by a thread, the Tigers took on the Chicago White Sox on the south side of the City of Broad Shoulders on Friday night, in the second game of a four-game weekend series. It looked awful early, then the bullpen did a great job to keep the game close as […]

It may not be Thanksgiving quite yet, but I’d like to make a toast to the City of Detroit. Sure, your football franchise is irrelevant, your hockey team is a shell of what it was and the best thing about your city is the bridge to Canada, but you do have the Detroit Tigers. We […]
