Gammons: White Sox Are 'Most Inexplicable Team' In MLB
CHICAGO (WSCR) It's has been a tough season so far for the Chicago White Sox and their fans. Both thought the team would have a good chance to win the division and make a deep run into the playoffs, but through 32 games Chicago is stuck in last place.

"Every passing week is another week," Gammons said. "You take it off the schedule and you go 'OK White Sox, when is this push going to start to come?'"
