Cruz Leads Twins to 8-4 Win Over White Sox
The Minnesota Twins used the hitting of center fielder Oneil Cruz to subdue the Chicago White Sox, 8-4. For the game, Cruz was 3-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. The winner was Ryan Pepiot, who threw 86 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 3 runs on 7 hits. The loss lowers the Chicago record to 1-5.

Elly De La Cruz had a timely hit in the top of the fifth inning. With two out and the bases loaded, the Minnesota shortstop hit a 2-run single. That put the Twins in front, 2-0.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Minnesota skipper Jonathan A.
