• Source: 2018 Chicago White Sox season

      • The 2018 Chicago White Sox season was the club's 119th season in Chicago and 118th in the American League. It marked the second season with Rick Renteria as manager of the Sox. The Sox played their home games at Guaranteed Rate Field. After losing to the Red Sox on August 30 they clinched their sixth consecutive losing season and their 11th year without a postseason spot. They began their season on March 29 against the Kansas City Royals and finished the season on September 30 against the Minnesota Twins.
      At 62–100, the White Sox finished four games ahead of the last-place Royals, had the third worst record in the league, and 29 games behind the Cleveland Indians; it was their first 100-loss season since 1970.
      It was the final season for long time PBP announcer Ken Harrelson who retired before the end of the season, and the second of the last for broadcasts on long time FTA broadcaster WGN-TV, the 2018–19 offseason was when it was announced that NBC Sports Chicago, the team's cable partner, will become the de facto official station of the team effective Opening Day 2020 with more game broadcasts there. No plans are yet to be made regarding the team's future free-to-air television broadcasts, through.
