Abreu Lifts White Sox to 6-2 Win
Behind the hitting of Bobby Abreu, the Chicago White Sox stopped the Minnesota Twins, 6-2. Abreu went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the White Sox. The White Sox, at 26-30, sit in 4th place in the AL American League Central.

Chicago grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Abreu, who finished 4th in the AL in slugging percentage with .597 in 1995, hit a grand slam home run. His 11th home run of the season put the White Sox out in front, 6-2.

"It was a good win," said Chicago manager Brian Schofield. "Not without blemish, but good."
