The Chicago White Sox suffered their 109th loss of the season, moving them closer to one of the worst seasons in MLB history. The calamity unfolded in the second inning against the Baltimore Orioles, featuring a comical collision between three White Sox outfielders that allowed multiple runs to score.
The Chicago White Sox's disastrous season reached a new low on Tuesday night as they lost their 109th game of the season, this time to the lowly Baltimore Orioles. The embarrassing defeat came with an added dose of calamity, as three White Sox outfielders collided in a comical attempt to catch a fly ball.
In the second inning, with two outs and the bases loaded, Orioles designated hitter Eloy Jimenez, formerly of the White Sox, hit a blooper towards the left field foul line. Three White Sox players gathered around as the ball came down. Shortstop Jacob Amaya bailed out, thinking at least one of his two teammates would make the catch. However, third baseman Miguel Vargas and left fielder Andrew Benintendi ran into each other and went to the ground, allowing the ball to drop in for multiple runs.

Vargas was taken out of the game with an injury after the play. Chicago went on to lose the game 9-0, extending their losing streak to 10 games.

The disastrous season is still ongoing for Chicago. The team is now 31-109 overall and 4-38 in the second half of the season. The team has not won a game since Aug. 21 against the San Francisco Giants.
The White Sox are on pace to reach one of the worst seasons in modern MLB history. The 1962 New York Mets hold the record for the most losses in a 162-game season, finishing with a 40-120-1 record. The Cleveland Spiders hold the all-time record for the most losses in a season with 20-134 in 1899.

Chicago already has the most losses in franchise history. The team is on pace to finish with the most losses since the 1906 St. Louis Browns, who went 39-113.
The White Sox's collapse has been a combination of poor pitching, weak defense, and a lack of offensive production. The team's starting pitchers have the highest ERA in the league, while the bullpen is among the worst. The defense has been plagued by errors, and the offense has struggled to score runs.
The White Sox's season has been a complete disaster. The team has no chance of making the playoffs and is on pace to finish with one of the worst records in MLB history. The future is uncertain for the White Sox, as they have a lot of work to do to rebuild the team and return to contention.
