The Chicago White Sox are enjoying a rich vein of form. They are on a four-game winning streak and have won three of their last four series.
The Good Guys are aiming to extend both streaks tonight.
Burke on the Mound Against Padres
Sean Burke, after securing his first career road win on April 22 in Arizona, is scheduled to pitch tonight. He will be aiming for his second win.
Burke’s ability to avoid walks and limit hard hits will be vital against a strong Padres team.
King Aims to Halt White Sox Offence
Michael King, the Padres’ ace, will be looking to stop Chicago’s offensive momentum. King relies on breaking and off-speed pitches, a contrast to Burke’s fastball.
The White Sox will be hoping King leaves some pitches hanging.
White Sox Line-up Changes
There are a few changes to the White Sox line-up.
- Jarred Kelenic is set to make his first White Sox start.
- Edgar Quero will be taking on backstop duties.
The Padres are also making adjustments to their starting nine. Gavin Sheets, Jackson Merrill, Luis Campusano and Jake Cronenworth are all included.
The game is scheduled for 7:40 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on CHSN and WMVP-AM 1000.
