With his team slogging through the worst season in franchise history, Chicago White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf says this has been a “very painful” year but he’s been “impressed” by the professional attitude from players and staff.

With the Chicago White Sox drawing national attention as they close in on the modern-day MLB record for losses, Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf conceded the obvious Wednesday, calling it a “very painful” season.

The White Sox lost again on Wednesday to the Cleveland Guardians. They're now 33-114 on the year, putting them on pace to shatter the modern single-season record for most team losses. That record currently belongs to the expansion New York Mets, who lost 120 contests in 1962.
