The White Sox and Atlanta Braves: A Look at Their Recent Performance and Future Outlook in Baseball

The Chicago White Sox began the 2024 season with a four-game losing streak but managed to turn things around with a win against the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night. This victory allowed the White Sox to compare themselves to the Braves’ performance in 2021, which ultimately led to a World Series win for Atlanta. Through five games, the White Sox have had 28 hits, 11 walks, six home runs, and a .329 slugging percentage at the plate. Their pitchers have also allowed 11 walks, mirroring the Braves’ stats from the previous year.

The White Sox have aligned themselves with a successful team like Atlanta, which has been dominant in recent years and has won the NL East six seasons in a row. In contrast, the White Sox have only won the AL Central once in the past 15 years, back in 2021. While Tuesday’s win was encouraging, there are still 157 regular-season games left and Chicago currently sits at the bottom of the AL Central with only a slim chance of making it to the postseason according to FanGraphs.

If they had lost their last game, they would have dropped down to zero wins and five losses. However, history shows that even teams like Atlanta in 2021 can turn things around and give fans hope for a successful season. While a championship may seem out of reach for now, most White Sox fans would be content with just one winning record this year.
