The Texas Rangers and Chicago White Sox will square off in the finale of a three-game series on Sunday, May 25, 2025, at Guaranteed Rate Field, with both clubs seeking very different outcomes. The White Sox, despite a 16–35 record, have taken the first two games of the series—4–1 on Friday and 10–5 on Saturday—and now look to complete a rare sweep in what has otherwise been a dismal season. The Rangers, at 25–27, are looking to stop the bleeding after dropping five straight and struggling on both sides of the ball during their recent slump. With injuries to key offensive players like Corey Seager (hamstring) and Evan Carter (quadriceps), Texas’ lineup has lacked punch, scoring just 3.3 runs per game over the past week and ranking 26th in the league in overall run production. Josh Jung has remained a bright spot with a .286 average, Wyatt Langford has flashed power with nine home runs, and Adolis García continues to lead the club in RBIs with 25, but the offense has largely underperformed in the absence of key bats. On the mound for Texas will be veteran left-hander Patrick Corbin, who enters with a 3–3 record and a 3.59 ERA. While Corbin has shown improved command and competitiveness this season, the Rangers will need him to eat innings to protect a bullpen that’s become overworked due to recent short outings from other starters. The White Sox counter with Davis Martin, who despite a 2–5 record has pitched well, maintaining a 3.49 ERA over 56.2 innings and giving Chicago a consistent presence every fifth day.

Offensively, Chicago has finally shown signs of life in this series, with Lenyn Sosa (.284 AVG) and Miguel Vargas (.234 AVG, 22 RBIs) leading a group that’s been better disciplined at the plate and more aggressive on the basepaths. Although their season totals still rank among the league’s worst, their recent approach has yielded improved results, including a 10-run breakout in Saturday’s win. Chicago’s bullpen has been a relative strength of late, backing up their starters with clean innings and holding leads in tight games. Defensively, both teams have played clean baseball, with few errors in the series and improved situational play by the White Sox contributing to their recent success. From a betting perspective, the Rangers are slight -140 favorites despite being on a five-game slide, while the White Sox, gaining momentum at +120, have quietly compiled a 14–11 ATS record at home. The over/under is set at 8.5 runs, indicating expectations of moderate scoring. With both starting pitchers carrying respectable ERAs and each team motivated for different reasons—Texas to regain its footing in the AL West, Chicago to build on rare momentum—Sunday’s contest figures to be closer than their season records suggest. If Corbin can keep the ball on the ground and the Rangers’ offense finds life, they’ll have a good shot to avoid the sweep, but another strong outing from Martin could solidify Chicago’s first series sweep in months.
