The Tampa Bay Rays (23-5) and Chicago White Sox (7-21) will wrap up a four-game series Sunday at 2:10 p.m. ET at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago, Illinois.

The Rays are trying for a sweep of the White Sox, while the Sox will attempt to put an end to a 10-game losing skid. Chicago greatly underperformed in 2022, despite entering the season as heavy favorites to repeat as American League Central champions. Now, the club is treading water under new manager Pedro Grifol. The White Sox are tied for the worst record in the AL Central at 7-21. Only the Oakland Athletics have a worse record. The club hoped that adding Andrew Benintendi, Mike Clevinger and a new manager would return the White Sox to the top of the division standings. Now, they find themselves at the very bottom of what may be the worst division in baseball. 14 games under .500, the White Sox are in desperate need of a win. Already nine games back of the division lead, Chicago is in serious danger of falling out of the playoff race before the start of May.

Drew Rasmussen (3-2, 3.33 ERA) will take the mound for the Rays, with Mike Clevinger (2-2, 4.81 ERA) starting for the White Sox.
