3-Game MLB SWEEPER PASS
(MLB) Detroit vs. Chi White Sox,
Money Line: -141.00 Chi White Sox (Home)
Result: Win
This contest will follow Saturday's rain suspended game which will resume Sunday afternoon. This is a situation likely to favor the home team, and my money is on the White Sox in the finale of this series.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The White Sox hand the ball to José Quintana (8-8, 3.13) who struck out seven while holding the Mariners to one run over six innings at Seattle his last start. Quintana will be looking to revenge his last meeting with the Tigers when he was knocked around for five hits in 4 2/3 frames, a rare subpar performance from the left-hander. The Tigers counter with Anibal Sanchez (5-11, 6.60 ERA) who has struggled all season long. He's been particularly poor in his two most recent outings on the road giving up a combined 12 runs while failing to get past 4 1/3 frames in either game. He's 2-6 behind a 5.26 ERA in 10 career meetings with Chicago.

2. Situational - Chris Sale was scratched from Saturday's contest due to "a clubhouse incident". The ace have been the subject of trade rumors and is possibly looking to force himself away from the club before the trade deadline as Chicago has played itself out of postseason contention. I think the rest of the Sox will come together as a group and enter this contest determined to better their disappointing results following the All Star break.

3. X-Factor - The Tigers are 1-12 in Sanchez's last 13 starts and 0-7 in his last seven on the road.

Selection: This is a play on the Chicago White Sox (8*)
