Finally, mercifully, the 2016 Minnesota Twins season reached its conclusion on Sunday afternoon in Chicago. An inter-divisional series that many thought would have some significance back in April, was played out in near-anonymity as both teams failed to even reach the .500 mark.
For the White Sox, they were leading all of the American League in wins after six weeks, battling the Cubs for relevancy in Chicago. While the Cubs never let off the accelerator, the White Sox fall was so great that five-year veteran manager, Robin Ventura, stepped down shortly after Sunday’s final Brandon Kintzler pitch.
