Who will win the AL Central? Track the latest standings, playoff tiebreakers and remaining games for the Guardians and White Sox.

The American League Central division race is heating up as the Cleveland Guardians and Chicago White Sox battle for the top spot. The Guardians lead the division by just one game, but they will need to finish at least one game ahead of the White Sox to secure their third consecutive championship. With six games left for both teams, every result matters.

The White Sox hold the season tiebreaker thanks to a 7-6 series win over the Guardians. If the two clubs end the season with identical records, the White Sox will claim the Central title. The Guardians require a 6-0 run to lock down the division, while the White Sox need only a 4-0 run to secure a playoff berth.
