Chicago White Sox @ Texas Rangers · Wednesday, Jul 22, 2026
Chicago’s lineup has very little history against Tyler Alexander. Miguel Vargas is hitless in 1 at-bat over 1 plate appearance against him with a .000 OPS, while Andrew Benintendi is hitless in 2 at-bats over 2 plate appearances with a .000 OPS. Sam Antonacci, Munetaka Murakami, Colson Montgomery, Braden Montgomery, Chase Meidroth, Edgar Quero, and Tristan Peters have no MLB history versus Alexander.
Texas also brings limited familiarity against Anthony Kay, but the few prior matchups have gone well. Brandon Nimmo is 1-for-1 against Kay with a 1.000 average and 2.000 OPS, and Nicky Lopez is also 1-for-1 with a 1.000 average and 4.000 OPS. Wyatt Langford, Justin Foscue, Jake Burger, Ezequiel Duran, Cam Cauley, Elias Díaz, and Alejandro Osuna have no MLB history versus Kay.
The Rangers have more positive prior results, even if the sample is tiny. The White Sox have slightly more total at-bats against the opposing starter, but all of that history is hitless.
