Detroit Tigers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

I’m on the under here. The White Sox still have one of the least effective offenses in baseball despite some decent showings over the last week. On the other side, the Tigers have scored 2 runs or less in 6 straight games and Jonathan Cannon’s been rock solid so I don’t know if that’s going to change here. All in all, I think this ends up being a low-scoring game, so give me the under in this one.
