The Chicago White Sox are 20-13 on the season and have won four straight games, including game one against Minnesota. In-game one, Chicago had an offensive outburst, scoring 9 runs on 11 hits. For Chicago, Yasmani Grandal went 1-4 with three RBIs, while Jose Abreu went 2-3 with two RBIs and two runs scored.

With 5.24 runs on 8.58 hits per game, the White Sox have the best offense in the league. Jose Abreu leads the White Sox with 7 home runs and 28 RBIs, while Yermin Mercedes leads the team with a.381 batting average.

Because both pitchers have been outstanding all season, this game will be a pitchers duel. Rodon has been nearly unhittable this season, which will be a problem for a Twins offense that has lost four of its last five games. Pineda will pitch well, but the White Sox bats are on fire right now, and they'll get to him before the Twins do. The Chicago White Sox will win 4-1, according to the final score prediction.
