On Sunday, the Cleveland Guardians beat the Minnesota Twins 9-2 to move within a half-game of the American League Central-leading Chicago White Sox. Interestingly, the Guardians now have the White Sox in front of them, with the three-game series set to begin Monday. So, the question is: can the White Sox put together a better performance against the Guardians?
The numbers favor Chicago, as the White Sox have won six of their 10 games against Cleveland this season. However, their recent form is a concern. They have won just four of their last 14 games, while the Guardians have picked up eight victories over the same stretch.
The series will also take place in Cleveland, giving the Guardians home-field advantage. With the division race this close, the team that wins this three-game series could gain a strong grip on the AL Central. MLB fans will not want to miss this one.
Tuesday will also mark Roberto Clemente Day. The Pirates will host the Brewers at PNC Park, with a dedicated live Spanish-language broadcast, “El día de Roberto Clemente: Los Piratas en español.”Clemente Jr. will join Carlos Baerga in the booth for the special telecast.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at the broadcast schedules for September 15.
