At a glance: The White Sox wrap up their 10-game homestand with four against the reeling A's. Oakland took an eight-game losing streak into Wednesday night's game at Baltimore. Offense has been the Athletics' biggest problem and they entered Wednesday tied with the Twins for the fewest runs scored (221) in the American League. Godfrey is set to make his major-league debut after going 7-1 with a 2.50 ERA for Class AAA Sacramento. After sitting out the past two games, Sox DH Adam Dunn is due back in the lineup tonight. The White Sox lost 2 of 3 to the A's at home in April and won 2 of 3 at Oakland in May.
