Gray's Slam Leads Twins to Skid-Ending Win over White Sox

Gray’s second grand slam of the season broke a 1-1 tie and helped Minnesota score four runs in the fifth to end a five-game skid.

  • On Monday, the Minnesota Twins snapped a five-game losing streak by defeating the Chicago White Sox 9-4, fueled by shortstop Tristan Gray's second career grand slam in the fourth inning.
  • Before the series, assistant hitting coach Rayden Sierra worked with Gray to practice hitting offspeed pitches, a preparation that directly preceded his home run. Gray said, "We were pretty pumped."
  • Twins right-hander Joe Ryan struck out nine batters across six innings, while White Sox infielder Miguel Vargas homered twice during the loss to pace Chicago's offense.
  • Minnesota expanded its lead in the fifth inning by scoring four runs on RBI singles from Austin Martin and Victor Caratini, plus sacrifice flies from Luke Keaschall and Gray.
  • The series continues Tuesday as White Sox right-hander Davis Martin faces Twins left-hander Connor Prielipp in the second game of the matchup.
