I am an Orioles fan since 1969 and have been thru both very good times and very bad times. The Orioles beat the White Sox yesterday 13-3 to make them 31-108 on the season.

So just how bad are the White Sox?
I have been following their miserable season since the All-Star break and will put it in perspective as an Oriole fan.
Oriole fans certainly remember the 1988 season when they started 0-21!
Well, even after that record setting pitiful start the Orioles would be 18 games ahead (49-90) of this White Sox team thru 139 games!! And the Orioles play in arguably the toughest division in baseball. This White Sox team has 23 games remaining...it would take a season ending 23 game win streak for them to equal the 54 wins of the 1988 Orioles...the team that started 0-21. Yes, this White Sox team is bad...really, really bad...and is likely the worst team since the start of World Series play in 1903.
Now that I have said that the Sox will probably beat the O's in the next 2 games.

And let's not forget the White Sox made the playoffs just 3 years ago by winning the AL Central with 93 wins under Tony La Russa...this team got bad really fast.
