The 2024 Chicago White Sox season was the club's 125th season in Chicago, their 124th in the American League and their 34th at Rate Field. It was their first full season under general manager Chris Getz.
In what was regarded as the worst season in modern MLB history, the team began the season with a 3–22 record, marking the poorest start in the franchise's history, which also tied the worst start in the wild card era. On June 6, following a defeat to the Boston Red Sox, the White Sox established a franchise record for the most consecutive losses at 14. During this losing streak, the White Sox had their first winless homestand of at least seven games in franchise history, going 0–7.
On July 14, following a defeat to the Pittsburgh Pirates, the White Sox established a new MLB record for the highest number of losses before the All-Star break, totaling 71.
The franchise record for consecutive losses was broken again on July 29 when the White Sox dropped their 15th straight game. The streak continued, and on August 5, the White Sox lost their 21st consecutive game. This marked the first time since the 1988 Baltimore Orioles that a team endured a 21-game losing streak. They managed to break the streak the following day with a victory over the Athletics. The White Sox became the first team since the 2021 Baltimore Orioles to go through two separate losing streaks of 14 games or more. Furthermore, they set a record for the quickest assurance of a losing season by losing 82 of their first 109 games, surpassing the 2003 Detroit Tigers, who lost 82 of their first 111 games.
On August 8, the White Sox dismissed manager Pedro Grifol following a 28–89 record at the start of the 2024 season, contributing to an overall record of 89–190. On that same day, the team appointed Grady Sizemore as the interim manager.
On August 17, with their loss to the Houston Astros, the White Sox became the first team to be eliminated from playoff contention in 2024. This surpassed the 2018 Baltimore Orioles for the earliest playoff exit since the divisional era began in 1969. Eight days later, on August 25, the White Sox became the fastest team since the 1916 Philadelphia Athletics to lose 100 games in a season when they lost to their division rival Detroit Tigers, dropping them to 31–100.
The team set a franchise record for losses when they lost their 107th game of the season on September 1 to the New York Mets. With this loss, the White Sox had their first 0–10 homestand in franchise history and became the first team since the 1965 Mets to have three losing streaks of at least ten games. The 0–10 homestand was part of a franchise record 16 straight home losses. It was also part of a 12-game losing streak.
On September 27, the White Sox lost their 121st game of the season, losing to the Tigers, surpassing the 1962 Mets for the most losses in modern MLB history. However, Chicago later finished the season at 41–121 (.253), three tenths of a percentage point better than the 1962 Mets. September proved to be their best month of the season as they went 10–15 and also had a record of 5–1 in their last 6 games, with their only loss coming from the aforementioned Tigers game.

Loss No. 121
On September 22, 2024, the White Sox lost 4–2 to the San Diego Padres, earning their 120th loss, surpassing the American League record set by the 2003 Tigers and tying the Major League record set by the 1962 expansion New York Mets. Following the game, several sports and news outlets ran articles discussing the potential for the White Sox to lose one of their remaining six games of the season to the Los Angeles Angels at home or the Tigers in Detroit to break the modern single-season loss record.
As a result, many White Sox fans bought tickets to White Sox home games against the Angels, hoping to witness the historic game where the team surpassed the modern loss record. Mixes of cheers and boos came from White Sox fans during the games when their team executed well, while fans yelled phrases such as "Sell the team!" when the team made mistakes. The White Sox won all three home games against the Angels to keep their record at 120 losses, resulting in fans throughout the stadium booing the White Sox. White Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi acknowledged the fans' reaction after the game by saying: "People here tonight were trying to see history. They're going to have to wait one more day. Maybe."
During the games, White Sox fans held signs mentioning the historical significance of the potential loss, including one sign bearing "121" in the font of the White Sox logo. The White Sox swept the Angels, winning their final home game of the season with a 7–0 score, resulting in a standing ovation from most of the White Sox fans in the stadium.
Game recap
Prior to facing the Tigers, Interim White Sox manager Grady Sizemore stated that despite the frustration surrounding their exceptional win-loss record, the White Sox players were ultimately professionals who would not be shaken by it, and trusted that they would play to compete and to win. He further stated that since the Tigers were attempting to clinch a spot in the playoffs, the White Sox wanted to do their best to spoil it.
The September 27 game remained scoreless through the first four innings, with both teams' starting pitchers performing effectively. The Tigers' broke the deadlock in the bottom of the 5th inning, with Jake Rogers scoring from third base on a wild pitch thrown by Jared Shuster. Matt Vierling hit a sacrifice fly two pitches later, scoring Parker Meadows to put Detroit up 2–0.
The White Sox responded in the top of the 6th inning, with Zach DeLoach hit a 401-foot home run to right field, the first of his major league career, to cut the lead to 2–1. The Tigers extended their lead in the bottom of the 7th, when Andy Ibáñez led off with a double to right-center and reached third base due to a fielding error by center fielder Dominic Fletcher.
Riley Greene hit a 412-foot double, scoring Ibáñez and extending Detroit's lead to 3–1. Later in the inning, another wild pitch thrown by Fraser Ellard scored Vierling, pushing Detroit's lead to 4–1.
Detroit relied entirely on their bullpen for pitching, with multiple relievers combining to effectively limit the White Sox to a single run. After Brett Hanifee started the game, rookie Brant Hurter was credited with the win after pitching four innings, while back end relievers Tyler Holton, Will Vest, and Jason Foley pitched the late innings, with Foley picking up his 28th save of the season.
The game's final out came when Andrew Vaughn flied out to right fielder Wenceel Pérez (who bumped into Meadows and fell as he made the catch) to end the game, send the Detroit crowd into a frenzy, and seal the White Sox fate in the history books.
Interim White Sox manager Grady Sizemore stated that the season was "not the year we wanted" following the game, and expressed that while he began to grow frustrated well before the team was close to the loss record he stated that he was not sure if he would feel different if he had lost only 115 or 110 games instead. Pitcher Garrett Crochet remarked on the record: "Obviously it sucks." and that "We put ourselves in this position early on. We are where we are because of the way we played. But that's just all it is."
Following the game, the official Chicago White Sox Twitter page posted an image of a computer containing a list of "Things we'd rather do than read comments" as well as an image of the White Sox mascot huddled in a dark corner captioned "slams laptop shut 'til tomorrow". Several White Sox fans posted derogatory and sarcastic images and comments mocking the team for making history with their loss record following the game.
