The Chicago White Sox suffered a 4-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers, marking their 121st loss of the season, breaking the MLB record set by the New York Mets in 1962. The team has been on a decline since winning the AL Central division in 2021, with 93 wins, compared to 81 wins in 2022 and 61 wins last season. They have only won 36 games so far in 2023. Offense has been a major issue for the White Sox, ranking near the bottom in multiple statistical categories. First baseman Andrew Vaughn has the highest batting average on the team, hitting .248. The team started the season with a 3-22 record, their worst 25-game start in franchise history. They also lost 21 consecutive games at one point, the first team to do so since 1988. Despite winning nine games in both May and June, the White Sox only managed to win seven games combined in July and August. The team struggled with hits, runs, home runs, batting average, runs batted in, total bases, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage, while being second-to-last in walks drawn.
