CHICAGO -- The Chicago White Sox, who tied an American League record this month with a 21-game losing streak, fired manager Pedro Grifol on Thursday.
The White did not name an interim replacement for Grifol, but announced that their next fulltime manager is "expected to be announced after the conclusion of the 2024 season."
The White Sox entered Thursday with the worst record in the majors at 28-89 and are two days removed from snapping Major League Baseball's longest losing streak since 1988, when the Baltimore Orioles also lost 21 in a row.
