MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Jose Abreu hit two three-run homers and drove in a career-best seven runs, and Chicago used Tim Anderson's two-run double in the 12th inning to get a wild win over Minnesota.
Abreu, Anderson and Melky Cabrera had three hits apiece, helping the White Sox overcome four homers by the Twins. The teams combined for 18 home runs while splitting the four-game series.
Juan Minaya (1-0) earned his first major league win. He pitched a scoreless 11th but walked the first two batters in the 12th. Tommy Kahnle came in and earned his third career save, retiring Eddie Rosario with the bases loaded for the final out.
Byron Buxton hit his first grand slam for Minnesota. Brian Dozier, Miguel Sano and John Ryan Murphy also went deep. Pat Dean (1-6) took the loss.
