Martinez Helps White Sox Run Win Streak to 5
A 6-RBI performance from J.D. Martinez, who led the AL in home runs with 56 last year, helped the Chicago White Sox beat the Minnesota Twins, 12-6. Nathan Eovaldi got the win, improving to 5-4. He worked 5.2 innings, giving up 5 runs on 8 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. The winning streak has now reached 5 games for the White Sox.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Charlie Blackmon to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the second inning to put the White Sox on top, 4-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I like winning," Blackmon told the Chicago News. "I may joke around, but when it comes down to it, winning is the most important thing."
