Butch Wynegar hit two solo homers and Rod Carew drove in three runs with a triple and homer to power the Twins to a 6-3 victory over the White Sox, who lost their eighth straight game. Wynegar hit his first homer in the second inning. Carew's triple followed a pass to Roy Smalley in the third. The Twins then erupted for four runs in the sixth, including Wynegar's second homer and Carew's clout with a man on base.
