Royce Lewis hit a three-run homer to highlight a six-run second inning on Sunday as the Minnesota Twins sent the Chicago White Sox to their 20th straight loss with a 13-7 win in Minneapolis.

The White Sox are the seventh team in modern baseball history to lose 20 straight games.

After the visitors stranded the bases loaded in the first inning, the Twins loaded the bases with one out in their half of the first.

Minnesota went up 1-0 on Baldwin's fielding error at second and took a 2-0 lead on Miranda's RBI single.

Castro's double drove in the first run of the second inning to make it 3-0. Trevor Larnach then plated Castro with a single to center.

Following another double by Byron Buxton, Lewis hit an opposite-field homer to right to stretch the lead to 7-0.

Flexen departed after giving up a two-out single to Miranda. Sammy Peralta entered and gave up an RBI triple to Matt Wallner to make it 8-0.

Chicago scored twice in the third on an RBI double by Vaughn and a run-scoring single by Lenyn Sosa.

Baldwin delivered an RBI single in the fourth to trim the deficit to 8-3, and Benintendi blasted a two-run homer in the seventh to make it 8-5.

Minnesota tacked on two more runs in the seventh on a passed ball and a sacrifice fly.

The White Sox drew within 10-7 in the eighth on consecutive RBI doubles by Luis Robert Jr. and Vaughn.

Chicago issued its ninth walk of the game with the bases loaded in the eighth to extend the Twins' lead to 11-7. Castro then lined a two-run single to close the scoring.
