The Chicago White Sox scored a convincing win at Target Field, defeating the Minnesota Twins, 14-0. One of the hitting stars was Addison Russell, who finished 5th in the AL in on-base percentage with .386 in 2021, who was 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Rocky Thompson, the winner, is now 10-11. He struck out 4 and walked 2 over 7.1 innings, while allowing no runs on 5 hits. The win boosted Chicago to 70-66.

The White Sox got a big hit from left fielder António García. Facing Minnesota pitcher Bob McDonald in the top of the sixth, García pounded a 3-run home run to left. His 20th home run of the season put the White Sox ahead, 10-0.

"Wish we could take a mulligan," said losing manager Robin Ventura.
