The Chicago White Sox face the Cleveland Guardians in a winner-take-all ALDS Game Five. After losing Game Four 9-5 to Jose Ramirez's heroics, the Sox must adjust their pitching strategy against Gavin Williams.

Sean Burke takes the mound for Chicago, facing a Guardians lineup loaded with power. The White Sox bullpen is severely depleted with injuries to Prelander Berroa, Tanner Murray, and Ky Bush. Relievers Tyler Davis and Jordan Hicks must step up immediately.

Key players include Munetaka Murakami, who needs to find his power stroke, and Andrew Benintendi, whose plate discipline will be tested against Williams. This preview breaks down the pitching matchup, injury impact, and keys to victory.
