MINNEAPOLIS—The woeful Chicago White Sox lost their 20th consecutive game Sunday, the longest Major League Baseball skid in 36 years and one short of the American League record, as Chris Flexen was chased early in a 13–7 defeat against the Minnesota Twins.
Royce Lewis hit a three-run homer off Flexen in a six-run second inning that gave Minnesota an 8–0 cushion. The White Sox (27–87) rallied to cut the deficit to 10–7 in the eighth, but couldn’t get any closer.
