Thanks to recent changes in Illinois state law, Chicago sports fans will soon be able to place bets on their favorite teams (and others). This means that for the first time you will be able to bet on Chicago White Sox games.

The White Sox didn’t start off the 2019 MLB season too brightly but became more consistent as the campaign progressed. The end of May saw probably the best form so far – with a five-game winning streak at the end of the month.

Unfortunately, since the league came back from the All-Star Game at the beginning of July, results have not improved. The White Sox now sit in the middle of the American League Central division, a fair way behind the impressive Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Indians.

Although it is not looking good for the Sox as far as playoff hopes go – or even for a wildcard spot – there may be the opportunity to bet on Chicago White Sox games before the end of the season.

Even if the Chicago White Sox are not going to win the pennant this year, the news about online sports betting is good. And it means that you can look forward to the 202 White Sox season in a whole new way too.
