While it has already been stated previously that the Yankees will no longer participate in the event, the White Sox are still slated to take on an unknown opponent. With the shortened MLB schedule and teams only playing divisional opponents and their corresponding geographical division, it would make absolutely too much sense for the MLB to look back to the 1919 undertones this game has and schedule the Cincinnati Reds as the opponent.

If the game moves forward it HAS to be White Sox and Reds. After all that was the 1919 series matchup.
