White Sox Lose On Walk-Off Hit-By-Pitch

The White Sox lost in Minnesota today when pitcher Juan Minaya hit Twins outfielder Max Kepler with the bases loaded in the ninth. There were two outs in the half inning, and the teams were tied at four runs apiece before Kepler’s HBP brought in Brian Dozier to score.

It concluded a three-game sweep of the White Sox; the Twins have now won seven of their last 10 and are holding onto the second AL Wild Card slot. The White Sox will return to Chicago to face the Rays at home and celebrate Mark Buehrle bobblehead night.
