The White Sox took three consecutive games from the Angels in Chicago from April 27-29, winning 8-7, 5-2 and 3-2 in 10 innings.

Players to watch include White Sox right-hander Anthony Kay, who allowed two earned runs over five innings in a losing effort Sunday. He faced the Angels on April 27, yielding seven hits and four runs in four innings while earning a no-decision. Angels righty Kochanowicz gave up five hits and two runs over 6 1/3 innings in Sunday’s loss. In his last start against the White Sox on April 27, he allowed five hits and two runs in six innings.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 6-1 Chicago victory. The Angels are -1.5 favorites on the run line, with the over/under set at 7.5 runs.
