Dylan Cease and the South Siders look to end the skid

The White Sox (53-85) are looking to recover from their 12-1 loss against the Royals (43-96) on Monday.

Dylan Cease will start on the mound for the South Siders. In 148 ¹⁄₃ innings, Cease has a 4.91 ERA, a 4.13 xERA, and a 3.82 FIP. He has accumulated 3.0 fWAR this season. August went quite poorly for Cease, as he had an 8.07 ERA during that month. He is looking to rebound and finish strong.
