Just a day after White Sox and Phillies legend Dick Allen was posthumously enshrined into the Hall of Fame, the two teams meet for the first time this season.

Also, Shane Smith is back up and throwing today after being sidelined after the All-Star Game with an injury.
Shane Smith threw a bullpen today. Went great, per the team . No rehab assignment.
ADPlan is for him to accompany the team to west coast with expectation that he'll be activated at some point on the trip.

Davis Martin (2-8) will start tonight for the White Sox. He had a rough outing upon his return from the IL, allowing three earned runs and four walks in five innings. He’ll be looking to bounce back.

Cristopher Sánchez (9-2) will be on the mound for the Phillies. Sánchez owns a respectable 2.40 ERA and 134 strikeouts, so expect a lot of those tonight.
