Jose Miranda hit a tiebreaking two-run single in Minnesota’s five-run sixth inning, and the Twins beat the Chicago White Sox 8-3 on Tuesday night for their first win of the season.
Ryan Jeffers and Ty France each had two hits for Minnesota, and Harrison Bader added a three-run homer in the ninth.
The Twins trailed 3-0 before rallying with two outs in the sixth. Jeffers and France greeted Penn Murfee (0-1) with RBI singles. Willi Castro was hit by a pitch before Edouard Julien singled in Jeffers.
Miranda then made it 5-3 when he drove France and Castro with a bloop single to right.
White Sox right-hander Shane Smith allowed two hits and two runs in 5 2/3 innings in his major-league debut. He struck out three and walked four.
Chicago’s starting pitchers worked 23 innings without allowing an earned run over the team’s first four games.
