Game Summary
Chicago White Sox defeated Minnesota Twins 7-4. Chicago jumped on Minnesota early when Colson Montgomery’s three-run homer in the first put them ahead, and Andrew Benintendi’s RBI double in the third broke a 4-4 tie; the White Sox added insurance runs in the fourth and eighth. Relievers backed the offense — Grant Taylor worked 2.2 scoreless innings with three strikeouts and was credited with the win, while Bryan Hudson finished with a scoreless inning for the save. Brooks Lee and Kody Clemens homered for the Twins, but Minnesota did not score after the second inning, and Dean Kremer took the loss after four innings of work.
