The White Sox go for the series win this afternoon against the Mariners at T-Mobile Park. A victory would give the South Siders their sixth series win of the season and move them to three games over .500 for the first time in 2026.
Sean Burke draws the start, hoping to erase the memory of his last mess — four runs, eight hits, and an early shower after 4 1/3. Still, he’s 2-3 with a 4.10 ERA in nine games, 48 1/3 innings of mostly serviceable work.
Here’s how Seattle marches out against Burke.

Seattle throws Emerson Hancock at the Sox, and he’s been sneaky good: 3-2 with a 3.02 ERA over nine starts. Last time out, he took the loss despite giving up just one run in six. He did tag the Sox for a win back on May 9, even though he coughed up five runs in six innings. Go figure.
Will Venable stacks them up like this on the getaway day.

It’s a familiar formula on both sides: Chicago trying to piece together enough offense to back a starter and Seattle leaning on steady pitching. With the series on the line, small margins will matter early.
The Sox have shown they can scrap out wins. So, now it’s about closing the deal and heading to San Francisco with another burst of momentum.
First pitch is set for 3:10 p.m. CT on CHSN, with radio coverage on ESPN 1000.
