Athletics vs White Sox Prediction
The Athletics come into this matchup looking to stay hot over their last two series, but they are just 5-9 at home this year. Chicago is looking for a very rare series win in this game, and they are 3-12 on the road. The White Sox are starting Martin, who has allowed one earned run or fewer in three of his five starts, but did allow four earned runs and eight hits against the A’s on April 17th. The Athletics are starting Bido, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in four of his five starts and pitched a gem against Chicago on April 16th. I know the A’s play in a higher scoring ballpark, but I like the pitching matchup and am going with the under here.
