This is a Free #MLB play on the #Chisox.

The Sox evened this series with Minnesota, winning Game 2 in a slugfest by a score of 9-6. The rubber match goes this afternoon, and this looks like a good spot to back the home team. Carlos Rodon will toe the slab for the Sox, and he's been very sharp in recent weeks. Rodon (2-6, 4.09 ERA) allowed a pair of runs on six hits, striking out eight over 5 2/3 innings in a home win over Toronto his last time out. He tossed six scoreless innings in a win at Minnesota earlier this season, and he boasts an impressive 2.64 ERA in day games this season.

The Twins hand the ball to Tommy Milone, who is still looking for his first win of the season. Milone (0-2, 5.33 ERA) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks over just 3 2/3 innings in a 5-3 loss in the Bronx his last time out. The southpaw has had success against the White Sox in the past, going 3-1 with a 2.41 ERA in his last seven starts against them.

Run support could be a problem for Milone, as the Twins rank dead last in the American League in runs scored. The Twins also have one of baseball's least reliable bullpens, ranking 27th in ERA by relief pitcher.

Take CWS.
