The Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees played one the most unique games MLB has ever seen at the Field of Dreams on Thursday and now they’re off to Chicago for a clash on Saturday between a pair of pitchers who enter in good form.
Yankees starter Jameson Taillon allowed four runs or more in his first five starts away from home, but in his five road starts since the start of July has allowed seven runs (four earned). The Yankees are 4-1 in these games with Taillon giving up two home runs in 31 ²/₃ innings with a 1.14 ERA.
The White Sox counter with Dylan Cease, who has a 2.20 home ERA and three runs or fewer allowed in all 11 of his home starts with opponents hitting .197 with 12.1 strikeouts per nine innings.
The Yankees have allowed four runs or fewer in 10 of their past 14 games; the White Sox have allowed four runs or fewer in 13 of their past 18 games. With the Yankees allowing the fewest home runs per game on the road this season and the White Sox 21st in home runs per game, runs won’t come as easily in Chicago as they did at the Field of Dreams.
The play: Yankees-White Sox total, Under 9 runs.
