DETROIT >> The Chicago White Sox lost their post-1900s, major league-record 121st game Friday night, falling 4-1 to the Detroit Tigers.

The White Sox broke the mark of 120 set by the New York Mets in 1962 in their first season. The Cleveland Spiders hold the overall record, going 20-134 in 1899.

“Honestly, there’s nothing for me right now,” manager Grady Sizemore said. “I think the frustration came long before this number.”

The closest any team had come to New York’s record was the 2003 Tigers, who won their final two games to finish with 119 losses. That remained the AL record until the White Sox hit 120 on Sunday in San Diego.
