At the time of this writing, the White Sox are -135 to -140 road favorites against a team they know they're capable of beating especially when their best pitcher is on the mound.

Chris Sale is making history and quietly becoming the most dominant pitcher in the American League. He's seeking his 6th straight game with 12 strikeouts or more.

He joined Randy Johnson and Pedro Martinez as the only pitchers in baseball to strikeout 12 or more batters in five straight games and he's going to set that record today.

Meanwhile, Phil Hughes is pitching like Phil Hughes... 5 wins vs. 6 losses and an ERA near 5.00. He failed in New York and he's failing in Minnesota despite a hot start to last season. Since then Hughes has been a below .500 pitcher with a low strikeout total and high ERA.

WhiteSox roll this afternoon.
