Homer in ninth lifts White sox

MINNEAPOLIS – A battery made up of former Twins once traded for one another teamed up to beat their old team Tuesday night.

A.J. Pierzynski hit a two-run home run in the ninth inning, and the White Sox held on to beat the Minnesota Twins, 4-3.

After Alex Rios singled off Jeff Gray (5-1), Pierzynski hit a 0-2 hanging slider into the right-field bleachers for his second homer in as many nights after missing five games with a right oblique strain.
