The Boston Red Sox Struggle at Home against the Chicago White Sox

The Boston Red Sox are one of the best teams in the major league, but they can’t seem to find a way to beat the Chicago White Sox at home.

The Boston Red Sox have been one of the best teams in the majors for much of this month but couldn’t end their struggles against the Chicago White Sox the last time they took the field.

The Red Sox might have a chance to avoid their longest home losing streak to the White Sox in 52 years if they get another strong outing from converted reliever Alfredo Aceves on Tuesday night.

Boston (30-24) had won 13 of 16 heading into Monday’s series opener at Fenway Park but fell for the 11th time in 13 matchups with Chicago (25-31). The 7-3 defeat was the Red Sox’s fifth in a row at home to the White Sox.

Chicago hasn’t won six straight at Fenway since a seven-game run July 12, 1958-May 14, 1959.

Judging by Aceves’ recent starts, Boston could have a chance to avoid that dubious feat Tuesday. The right-hander has allowed one run in each of his two starts since replacing an injured Daisuke Matsuzaka in the rotation.

Aceves (2-0, 2.22 ERA) earned his second career victory as a starter in Thursday’s 14-1 rout of Detroit and 12th consecutive winning decision dating to 2009, when he was a reliever for the New York Yankees.

No pitcher has won 13 straight since former NL Cy Young Award winner Brandon Webb from Sept. 7, 2007-May 15, 2008.

Aceves did not get a decision in his only start against the White Sox on Sept. 15, 2008, despite allowing two runs and five hits over six innings. He’s 2-0 with a 4.05 ERA in five appearances against Chicago.

After ending their three-game slide Monday, the White Sox will start Phil Humber (3-3, 2.85) and push Gavin Floyd back to Wednesday’s series finale. Floyd took the loss in relief during a 14-inning game Saturday in Toronto.

Humber, who has never faced the Red Sox, is 2-1 with a 2.16 ERA in his last six starts. He gave up one run over 7 2-3 innings Thursday but did not earn the victory in Chicago’s lone win over four games in Toronto.

Former Chicago closer Bobby Jenks is expected to be activated from the disabled list Tuesday and could face the White Sox for the first time since criticizing their front office and manager Ozzie Guillen in an interview with the Chicago Tribune after signing a two-year deal with Boston in the offseason.

The Red Sox will get back on the winning track in the second game at home as they finally beat the White Sox at Fenway Park.
