Chicago White Sox use wit to report recent defeats - ESPN

To say that the 2024 MLB season has not gone the way of the Chicago White Sox would be an understatement.

With a 36-120 record, Chicago is on the cusp of setting the record for the most losses in an MLB season during the modern-day era — the Cleveland Spiders in 1899 lost more games (134), according to ESPN Research.

The White Sox have lost at least four straight games 14 separate times this season, headlined by a 21-game losing streak that tied the American League record set by the Baltimore Orioles in 1988. Chicago won its next game, however, ensuring that they weren't alone on the wrong side of history.

A record number of losses can be exhausting for members of the organization across the board. The clubhouse has learned to cope with the season through humor, and the White Sox's social media team is no different.

In recent weeks, as the losses have continued to pile up, Chicago's X account has found comedic and creative ways to report its defeats.

Here's a look at the White Sox's final score posts — or lack thereof — since last Tuesday.

Chicago had rare momentum heading into a matchup with the Los Angeles Angels last week. The White Sox strung together three wins in a row, tied for their second-longest win streak of the entire season.

That streak didn't last any longer though. The Angels defeated the White Sox 5-0, scoring in five straight innings.

With their win streak snapped, Chicago opted to focus on what could have been.
