As for 2022's National League opponents, the White Sox are set for just four games against the Crosstown-rival Cubs, all of them coming in May. The White Sox will go head-to-head with all five NL West teams, playing hosts to the Los Angeles Dodgers, Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies and traveling to take on the Rockies, San Francisco Giants and San Diego Padres.
That three-game series against the Padres in Southern California will close out the regular-season schedule from Sept. 30 to Oct. 2.
The month of June seems to set up as a particularly challenging one, with the White Sox playing series against the Dodgers, Toronto Blue Jays, Tampa Bay Rays, Houston Astros and Los Angeles Angels.
