What is Davis Martin's home vs. road ERA split this season?
Martin has been dominant at Rate Field, posting a 1.01 ERA across six home starts while going 5-0. On the road, however, he owns a 5.09 ERA in eight starts across 46 innings.
Are other White Sox starters also struggling on the road?

What is the Chicago White Sox overall record at home vs. on the road this season?
The White Sox have been a dominant home team, posting a 24-12 record at Rate Field, but have struggled away from Chicago with a 14-21 road record. Chicago is among just seven MLB teams with fewer than 15 road wins this season.
What mental mistake did Jacob Gonzalez make against the Yankees?
Rookie Jacob Gonzalez made a mental mistake that extended the second inning during Martin's rough outing at Yankee Stadium. The error contributed to an already difficult night for Martin, who also lacked his usual command on the mound.
