White Sox Shut Out Twins 8-0 as Fedde Earns First Win Since August

The Chicago White Sox beat the Minnesota Twins 8-0 on Wednesday, June 3, 2026, in Minneapolis. Erick Fedde pitched five scoreless innings for his first win in 10 months. Rookie Sam Antonacci went 4 for 4 with two doubles, a walk and a hit by pitch.

The White Sox took a 4-0 lead in the first inning against Twins starter Taj Bradley and improved to a 33-29 record. Fedde retired the first 11 batters he faced and did not allow a hit until consecutive two-out singles in the fifth inning. He threw 61 pitches in the outing.

The 33-year-old right-hander has switched teams four times in three years and recorded his most recent victory on August 9, 2025, in a start for St. Louis. He entered the game with a 1-5 record after eight starts and four bulk relief appearances this season.

Bradley failed to finish five innings for the second straight start. It was his third turn since returning from the injured list with pectoral muscle inflammation. He has allowed 24 runs over 11 starts, including 10 in the first inning, and entered the game with a 5-2 record.

Andrew Benintendi had a two-run homer, a single and three walks. Jacob Gonzalez hit a two-run single for the first RBIs of his career. The White Sox won for just the third time in their last 11 road games.

The White Sox start a three-game series at Philadelphia on Friday. 77 ERA, takes the mound for Chicago. The Phillies have not announced a starter.

The Twins host Kansas City on Thursday to begin a four-game series. The Twins have yet to name a starter with their rotation depleted by injuries. 55 ERA, pitches for the Royals.
