The good news is that the White Sox had an extra-base hit tonight.

The bad news? That’s three extra-base hits, all doubles, in the last four and a half games.

The good news? This double came from struggling hitter Lenyn Sosa.

The bad news? It was only a double.

The good news? It’s been a hit.

The bad news? That was the only run the White Sox scored. That makes it 22 one-run games and 14 shutouts = 36 games with fewer than two runs scored.

As of August 20, the White Sox are 10 games away from setting their all-time franchise losing record.

They will try to avoid the sweep in tomorrow’s afternoon final.
