Don't we have some white sox fans in here?
Mauer hits grand slam, Twins rout White Sox 20-1
CHICAGO (AP)—While the Chicago White Sox weren’t exactly showing their best side to Jake Peavy(notes), the Minnesota Twins were taking out their anger on the baseball.
Joe Mauer(notes) hit a grand slam, two doubles and drove in a career-high six runs as the Twins routed the White Sox 20-1 Thursday, matching Chicago’s most-lopsided loss in team history.
“I think a lot frustration came out today,” said Mauer, whose Twins had lost the first six games of their road trip before winning big on getaway day. “We had a rough trip. It was nice to get some runs. We kept on saying, ‘Keep at it, keep at it.”’
There was nothing nice about the game for the White Sox, whose only other 19-run defeat ever was a 19-0 loss at Anaheim in 2002.
“We did everything wrong we could do,” Chicago manager Ozzie Guillen said. “You name it, we did it wrong.”
