Eloy was back! And in a big way, too!
In his first at-bat since April 23, Eloy Jiménez struck out looking. But then came his second:
The two-run homer, a 156-foot high moon shot, was barely fair, but good enough for the White Sox to for some reason post it twice. Sure, why not?
That was part of a very consistent game pattern, at least in regulation:
- Twins take the lead in the first, 1-0, when Tim Anderson forgets you’re supposed to tag the runner with the ball, not an empty glove, negating an inning-ending double play.
