After being swept by the Yankees over the weekend, the White Sox return home and hope to get back to their winning ways. It won’t be an easy task, however, as they welcome to town the First Place St. Louis Cardinals for a three-game set. Lance Lynn will take the rubber as he faces off against Tony La Russa’s former team. In fact, this will be the first time in his career that La Russa faces the Cardinals.

Starting Pitchers
Lance Lynn (4-1, 1.55 ERA) vs. Kwang-Hyun Kim (1-1, 2.73 ERA)
- Lynn will make his next start against his longtime former team. The big right-hander doesn’t have much experience against the Cardinals’ lineup, but those players he has faced have not fared well.
- Former Harvard-Westlake teammates Jack Flaherty and Lucas Giolito will face off Tuesday evening.
