White Sox to Begin Playoffs Today; Cubs Tomorrow

UNDATED (WHTC-AM/FM) – The White Sox begin a best-of-three American League playoff series in Oakland against the Athletics this afternoon, while the Cubs will wait until tomorrow afternoon before opening their best-of-three National League playoff series at Wrigley Field against the visiting Miami Marlins. It’s the first time both of Chicago’s baseball teams are in the post-season in the same year since 2008, and it’s just the third time in history, following the 1906 World Series won by the Hitless Wonders Pale Hose over the heavily-favored Cubs.
