The Chicago White Sox have the worst record in Major League Baseball and are in the midst of a 20-game losing streak. That sounds bad, but somehow the Southsiders are far worse than that description would tell you.
Chicago's 20 consecutive losses are one short of the American League record, set by the Baltimore Orioles in 1988. The MLB record since 1900 is 23 straight, set by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1961. Both marks are in reach for this horrendous club, which hasn't won a game since July 10, and it's worth noting that victory followed a three-game losing streak.
