White Sox Tie for 3rd Most Losses in MLB

The Chicago White Sox suffered their 117th loss of the season in a 13-inning game against the Los Angeles Angels, tying the 1916 Philadelphia Athletics for the third most losses in a season since 1900. Eric Wagaman scored the winning run for the Angels on a grounder by Jordyn Adams that deflected off third baseman Miguel Vargas' glove. The Sox, now at 36-117, need to win seven of their final nine games to avoid tying the post-1900 record of 120 losses by the 1962 New York Mets. Interim manager Grady Sizemore has emphasized staying positive and focusing on one game at a time despite the team's struggles. The White Sox will next face the San Diego Padres before closing the season with a six-game homestand against the Angels and the Detroit Tigers.
