The Cubs took three of four games in the Crosstown Classic last season, outscoring the Sox 22-11. The White Sox hit just .206 in the series last season.

Since the start of last season, the White Sox are 6-18 in interleague play, allowing 39 home runs, the second-most in that span (Orioles, 42). Since 2017, the Cubs are 13-9 in interleague play and have averaged 5.32 runs, the most among NL teams.

The White Sox have lost five straight and nine of the last 10. In that span, the Sox's starters have posted a 5.76 ERA.  They are the only team without 10 wins this season.

After hitting four home runs in two games against the Royals on April 26 and 27, Matt Davidson has yet to hit a homer since. Despite this, he has a .410 on-base percentage since then (10 games) but has only one RBI.

The Cubs swept the Marlins earlier this week, scoring 31 runs in the three games. It is tied for the most runs in a three-game series so far this season (Blue Jays scored 31 against the Royals).

In his last four games, Kris Bryant is 6-for-16 (.375) with three home runs, including his 100th career home run. In his career, however, Bryant has batted just .212 with one home run against the White Sox in 14 games.

HP - Johnson, 1B - Gibson, 2B - DiMuro, 3B - Gorman

The Chicago Cubs will go for their fifth win in a row when they host their crosstown rival Chicago White Sox on Saturday afternoon at Wrigley Field.
After an up-and-down start to the season, the Cubs (20-15) have erupted at the plate this week with 42 runs in their past four games. They would match their high-water mark at six games above .500 with one more win.

Cubs face White Sox in search of fifth straight win

CHICAGO (AP)  The Chicago Cubs figured it was just a matter of time before Willson Contreras would start knocking the ball around.
He sure is on a tear at the moment.
