The Chicago White Sox are currently experiencing a significant losing streak, having matched the American League record with 21 consecutive losses, a feat last achieved by the 1988 Baltimore Orioles.

This streak has brought the White Sox's record to 27-88, putting them on pace to finish the season with a historic 124 losses, which would mark the worst record in MLB history since the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.

In their latest game against the Minnesota Twins, the White Sox fell behind early, with Royce Lewis hitting a three-run homer that contributed to a six-run second inning for Minnesota.

Making his MLB debut, pitcher Ky Bush struggled, allowing three runs and five walks in four innings, while the team managed only four hits and issued nine walks to Athletics batters.

White Sox manager Pedro Grifol expressed the team's frustration over the losing streak, emphasizing the need for professionalism and focus as they prepare for upcoming games.

The White Sox entered the game with a dismal record of 0-55 when trailing after six innings, which has now extended to 0-56 following their latest loss.

With a potential loss in their next game against the Athletics, the White Sox could set a new record for the longest losing streak in the American League in over a century.

The White Sox will face the Oakland Athletics in a three-game series starting Monday, while the Twins will begin a series against the Chicago Cubs.

In the game against the Athletics, Lawrence Butler hit a home run in the sixth inning, contributing to the team's victory.

This franchise-record losing streak has left the White Sox 60 games below .500 for the first time in history, highlighting the team's struggles throughout the season.

Chris Flexen, another White Sox pitcher, also struggled in the game, allowing eight runs (six earned) and failing to make it out of the second inning.
