After looking like an AL frontrunner, the White Sox have lost eight of their last 10 and appear to be in trouble at the plate, as they have been held to just 7 runs in their last four games. KC has now won five of six and that is due in large part to their pitching, which has allowed a total of 15 runs in the six games.
