Oakland has been a strange team. Outside of the 9-0 win on Friday, they have been held to 4 runs or less in their last six games. Chicago hasn’t been much better, being held to 4 runs or less in four of their last 6. The pitching matchup certainly favors the White Sox, as Quintana has been solid, but don’t count on Chicago to post a bunch of runs despite facing a struggling arm in Neal.
