Twins Deal White Sox 6-4 Loss
Behind the hitting of Yasiel Puig, the Minnesota Twins stopped the Chicago White Sox, 6-4. Puig went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times for the Twins. Shawn Cummings, the winner, goes to 9-12. He allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 4 strikeouts over 6.2 innings. Bobby Bass was credited with the save, his 6th in 10 tries.

Minnesota used a clutch at-bat from Anthony Rendon to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Twins ahead, 5-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Yasiel raked," said Minnesota manager Robin Ventura.

Minnesota raised its record to 77-66 with the win.
