Twins' winning streak ends

Zebby Matthews suffers first loss in months as White Sox silence Twins

Zebby Matthews, the most reliable member of the Twins' starting rotation, gave up three home runs in a 4-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox. This marked the first time Matthews has lost a game since July 24, breaking his five-start winning streak. The loss was against White Sox right-hander Erick Fedde, who is 5-0 with a 1.18 ERA in seven career starts against Twins hitters. The Twins managed six singles and only one baserunner reached third base in the first eight innings. The team's offensive performance was disappointing, with Miguel Vargas' 30th home run from Matthews.
