Twins trample South Siders, 14-4
Tonight’s MVP: For briefly stealing attention from the debacle on the diamond. | Photo by Jeff Wheeler/Star Tribune via Strong start from Sox can’t be sustained Things started off pretty well for the White Sox on Tuesday, going up 3-0 before — in a photo negative of all the things Chicago did well in Monday’s win — seeing the Minnesota Twins score 14 of the final 15 runs in a 14-4 washout. The key play tonight was a two-out error, with the game tied, 3-3, in the fifth. Instead of getting out of the inning on a pardon-me comebacker tap in front of the plate from Max Kepler, we...

Series Preview: Minnesota Twins @ Milwaukee Brewers
Jordan Johnson-USA TODAY Sports The Twins come to town with an impressive record, but have been treading water for 2 months The last time we saw the Minnesota Twins, it was the day after Memorial Day and Minnesota had MLB’s best record at 37-17 after splitting two games with the Brewers.

The Twins enter Miller Park tonight trailing Cleveland in the AL Central by a half-game. You could call it a collapse, but they’ve...
