On Sunday, the White Sox host the Astros for Game 3 of the ALDS. The Astros come in with a 2-0 lead in the series, which means they're one win away from advancing to the ALCS for a fifth straight year. The White Sox, meantime, have no margin for error and must beat the Astros in three straight if they're to move on to the ALCS for the first time since their championship season of 2005. Here's how to watch Game 3, which features a pitching matchup of Luis Garcia vs. Dylan Cease.
The right-handed Garcia this season owns a 3.30 ERA/130 ERA+ and a 3.34 K/BB ratio in 155 1/3 innings. As for Cease, also a right-hander, he has a 3.91 ERA/111 ERA+ and a 3.32 K/BB ratio in 165 2/3 innings in 2021. He led the AL this season with a K/9 of 12.2.
Across all postseason history, just 10 teams have come back from down 0-2 to win a best-of-five series. The last team to pull if off was the Yankees in their 2017 ALDS against Cleveland. The White Sox are tasked with joining those rare ranks, while the Astros need merely win one of the next three games.
