After taking two out of three in Kansas City, the White Sox (31-33) look to keep their momentum as they return home to face the Nationals (30-35). In Washington D.C., the Nationals completed a short, two-game sweep over the White Sox last week. This will be the first of another two-game series against Washington, as the White Sox look for revenge.
Aníbal Sánchez, 35, will pitch for the Nationals. Sánchez is in his 14th season in the majors and has a 4.19 ERA, 4.30 FIP, and 4.89 xFIP in 2019. Perhaps his largest statistical weakness this season has been his walk rate, which stands at 4.
