Yankees vs White Sox Preview & Prediction: Records, Pitching Matchups and More| Game - 03

The New York Yankees are riding a six-game winning streak and want nothing less than a sweep against the Chicago White Sox. Both teams will square off at the Bronx, heading into the series finale.

As predicted, the Yanks won Game 2 against the White Sox easily. The powerful offense opened up while Luis Gil dominated the mound and the bullpen restricted the White Sox to only one run. It's been a tough series for the White Sox as their slump continues.

Game 3 will be telecast on YES and NBCSCH and the live stream can be watched on Fox Sports. The Bronx Bombers improved their record to 32-15, the second-best in the majors and the best in the American League.

The White Sox have declined further and their poor performance in the last two games was evident. Offensively, they are struggling to score and their pitching seems no match for the opponent. The White Sox have dropped to 14-32 this season.

Yankees vs White Sox pitching matchups

Left-handed pitcher Carlos Rodon will take the mound against the White Sox. Rodon is 4-2 with a 3.31 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP. Getting some early strikeouts against a struggling offense should not be an issue for the southpaw in this game.

The White Sox will turn in Chris Flexen as their starting pitcher for Game 3. Flexen holds a 2-3 record with a 4.46 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. In 40-plus innings pitched, Flexen has 30 strikeouts. It's going to be a challenge for the righty to prevent hits against powerful hitters like Juan Soto, Aaron Judge, Anthony Volpe, Giancarlo Stanton and more.

Yankees vs White Sox prediction

The odds are intact for the Yankees to win Game 3 and sweep the White Sox. The Bronx Bombers are powerful at the plate, with a strong pitcher on the mound. Additionally, they have a decent bullpen to back them.

It's going to be hard for the White Sox to prevent hits. Offensively, they are weak when compared to the Yanks. From the pitching end, they do not have enough firepower to dominate the game. The Yanks are predicted to win and extend their overall record.
