Ken Landreaux had two singles to extend his hitting streak to 30 games as the Twins prevailed over the White Sox, 5-2. A three-run outburst in the sixth inning proved decisive. Trailing, 2-1, the Twins rallied with four hits and two walks as Glenn Adams, Hosken Powell and John Castino each drove in one run. Rick Sofield connected for a homer in the seventh.
