Chicago White Sox lose 121st game of the season, set modern-era MLB record for losses [View all]

The Chicago White Sox lost their 121st game of the season Friday, etching their names further in baseball infamy.

With a 4-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers, the White Sox fell to 39-121. They now hold sole possession of the MLB record for losses in a season in the modern era, a span that dates to 1900.

The White Sox were previously tied for the record with the expansion 1962 New York Mets, who finished 40-120-1. The Sox reached that low point on Sept. 22, with a 4-2 loss to the San Diego Padres.

The White Sox have two games remaining on their regular-season schedule and still have time to extend the record before their season concludes Sunday, putting it further out of reach of future exceptional losers.
