After a 12-5 win on Friday, the White Sox entered the Game 2 of the Crosstown Series ranked first or second in MLB in runs scored (61), runs per game (8.7), run differential (plus-33), slugging percentage (.544), OPS (.909), hits (80), batting average (.307), on-base percentage (.365) and doubles (23).

Chicago White Sox right-hander Adrian Houser has the third-best ERA in the AL since May 20. He has been mentioned in trade speculation but is focused on “right now.”

The San Diego Padres might consider trading Dylan Cease at the trade deadline, and the Chicago Cubs could emerge as the best landing spot for a deal.
