While the Blue Jays as a whole are looking for a bounce-back performance from Fridays lackluster performance , as is starter Berrios, who gave up a season-high six runs in 4.2 innings of work, his shortest outing of the year, in an 11-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies last Sunday.
Other than last week's implosion, Berrios has pitched well in recent starts, giving up only one run in the three appearances before Sunday's loss. Coming into Saturday, the Puerto Rican righty has a 3.81 ERA with a 2-3 record this season.
Taking the mound opposite Berrios will be Aaron Civale, who is making his second appearance with the White Sox since being traded to the South Side of Chicago from the Milwaukee Brewers earlier in June.
The 30-year-old has a 1-3 record with a 4.67 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in six starts between the Brewers and White Sox this season.
The White Sox (24-52) are 2-8 in their last 10, but coming into Friday's game, had lost eight in a row with series sweeps to the Texas Rangers and St. Louis Cardinals. They're currently last place in the AL Central.
