Alexei Ramirez remains in lineup after another poor defensive play

MINNEAPOLIS — White Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez had the latest in a string of bad defensive showings Monday against the Twins at Target Field, but manager Robin Ventura didn't think it merited Ramirez's removal from the lineup Tuesday.

"There are times when you do give him that day, and I don't think this is that time," Ventura said. "We always know there are times (when) he might have a game like that, and then he comes back and plays well.
