White Sox Stun Twins With Ninth-Inning Rally to End 205-Game Late-Deficit Skid

Chicago rides renewed late-game resolve into the series finale, with Jonathan Cannon expected in a bulk role behind opener Fraser Ellard.

Overview

  • Michael A. Taylor lashed a two-out, two-run double in the ninth to complete a three-run inning and seal a 4-3 win at Target Field.
  • The result snapped Chicago’s 205-game streak of losses when trailing after eight innings, ending an 0-72 mark in that spot this season.
  • Edgar Quero homered in the second and ignited the ninth with a one-out single before Andrew Benintendi walked and Brooks Baldwin delivered an RBI single and a steal.
  • Yoendrys Gómez worked five innings of two-run ball (one earned), Grant Taylor recorded his first major-league win, and Jordan Leasure notched his sixth save after a leadoff double and a walk.
  • The victory matched a season-best four-game winning streak and moved the White Sox to 52-88, with Cannon set to return in a bulk role as Ellard opens the series finale.
