These teams haven't met since the Pirates won all four 2018 matchups to push their winning streak in the series to eight games. This is Pittsburgh's longest active winning streak against any team and Chicago's longest active losing streak versus. any club.

The White Sox have pounded out 30 homers in their last nine games - one of just five teams in baseball history to club at least 30 home runs in a nine-game stretch in a single season, joining the 2019 Dodgers, 2019 Yankees, 2006 Braves and 1977 Red Sox. They hit six home runs Friday and five more on Saturday giving them four games this season with 5+ homers. This is only the fourth season they've had four games with 5+ homers, along with 2003 (five games), 2000 (four games) and 2004 (four games).

Jose Abreu hit six home runs in Chicago's weekend series against the Cubs, and since his 2014 rookie season, only Nolan Arenado (474) and Mike Trout (444) have more extra-base hits than Abreu's 430. Abreu has a .424/.457/.970 slash line in the seventh inning or later with a 1.427 OPS -- the highest in the majors among the 176 batters with at least 25 plates appearances after the sixth inning.

The White Sox are 15-4 (.789) when scoring first but 2-8 (.200) when their opponent scores first. That difference in win percentage of .589 is the second largest in MLB behind the Tigers at .664.

The Pirates send a lefty to a mound in the opener in Steven Brault, and the White Sox have a major league-best .994 OPS against southpaws. Chicago starts righty Lucas Giolito, and Pittsburgh's .588 OPS against right-handers is the worst in MLB.

Josh Bell has a .186/.265/.209 slash line in his last 11 games and a .545 OPS on the season. He had a .936 OPS last season, and that decrease in OPS of .391 is the largest in MLB among batting qualifiers in each season.

Chicago White Sox manager Rick Renteria is hopeful that Lucas Giolito's no-hitter on Tuesday against the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates could serve as a springboard for the club.
The White Sox and Dallas Keuchel will look for an encore on Wednesday vs. the Pirates and Trevor Williams.

White Sox try to follow up no-hitter vs. Pirates

CHICAGO (AP)  Jose Abreu homered again, Dallas Keuchel followed Lucas Giolito's no-hitter with six dominant innings, and the surging Chicago White Sox pounded the Pittsburgh Pirates 10-3 on Wednesday for their ninth win in 10 games.
Abreu's 12th home run and seventh in five games, a two-run shot in the seventh, was Chicago's fourth of the game and broke it open. Eloy Jimenez slugged a three-run homer, Danny Mendick lined a two-run drive and Edwin Encarnacion added a solo shot for Chicago, which leads the AL with 60 home runs.
