Overview

  • Andrew Benintendi went 4-for-5 with two home runs and five RBIs to lead Chicago’s offense.
  • The White Sox poured in 11 runs from the fifth through eighth innings, including back-to-back homers by Kyle Teel and Lenyn Sosa.
  • Davis Martin allowed three runs over six innings to earn the win and improve to 6-9.
  • A shattered-bat grounder preceded an errant throw by Simeon Woods Richardson, setting up Bryan Ramos’ game-tying double.
  • Chicago notched a third straight win and now leads the season series 6-5, while the Twins fell to 35-34 at home before a September-record-low Target Field crowd of 11,721.
