White Sox Win at Minnesota, 6-2
The Chicago White Sox stopped the Minnesota Twins, 6-2, behind an impressive performance from Byron Buxton. The 31-year old center fielder made life miserable for Minnesota pitching. He was 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Alec Asher picked up the win, lifting his record to 3-0 on the season. He struck out 4 and walked 2 in 6.2 innings, while yielding 2 runs. Minnesota falls to 14-10.

Buxton contributed a big hit, a 3-run home run, for Chicago in the top of the fourth. With his team trailing 1-0, Buxton took a fastball from Bob McDonald and stroked the home run to left. His 3rd home run of the season allowed the White Sox to leap in front, 3-1.

"Glad to go home with a win," said Buxton.
