Twins 5, White Sox 4 (11 innings): How sweep it isn’t

The Chicago White Sox ended a long road trip by getting swept by the division-leading Minnesota Twins to put them 12 games back of first place and 19 games under .500. It’s just awful stuff and at this point, there can’t be any other way to spin it.

Things started brightly, as the hobbled Eloy Jiménez homered off of Bailey Ober in the top second inning to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead.

Oscar Colás showed off some arm strength from right field in the bottom of the second inning, after Lucas Giolito allowed a leadoff double to Max Kepler.
