The Chicago White Sox sure are enjoying their home games.
That remained true on Sunday, despite a slow start, as they rallied to defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers and continue an incredible run of form at Rate Field.
They've won 20 of their last 24 games in their home ballpark.
That'll work.
On Sunday, it was a 6-4 victory.
The White Sox had six consecutive hits in the sixth inning, including three home runs.

Sam Antonacci homered an an 0-2 pitch to start the rally.
Miguel Vargas singled, stole second and scored on an Andrew Benintendi double.
Colson Montgomery launched his 17th homer of the season to keep it going.
Then it was a Braden Montgomery single, and a Chase Meidroth homer, to complete the six hits in a row accounting for all six runs.
“We all feed off that energy and that spark of something happening,” Colson Montgomery said after the game, via MLB.com. “It could have been someone getting a hit and stealing, but then it was just Sammy hitting a homer and tying the game up. That was what we needed. Everyone in the dugout kind of had a feeling once we tied it up and hit the homer that we were going to scrap out a win somehow.”
The Dodgers are back-to-back World Series champions.
In those two seasons, the White Sox have been total afterthoughts.
This season, though, Chicago is now in first place in the AL Central, and they're rolling. They earned this moment against the Dodgers, and if home cooking keeps working like this, it'll be great news for the White Sox.
