The Chicago White Sox, for whatever reason, struggle against the Oakland A’s in Oakland. On Tuesday, they defeated the Athletics for their first win in Oakland since 2017. They then lost the next two including the game on Thursday. They can now say that they haven’t won a playoff series in Oakland since 2016.
