White Sox set new franchise loss record


 

The Chicago White Sox made some more dubious history Sunday, getting blanked 2-0 by the New York Mets to set a new franchise record with their 107th loss of the 2024 season.

The previous White Sox record of 106 had stood since 1970.

Sunday's defeat was Chicago's 40th in its last 44 games, putting the club alongside the 1916 Philadelphia Athletics as the second modern-era team to have such a cold stretch, according to Scott Merkin of MLB.com.
