Byron Buxton and Trevor Larnach homered help the Minnesota Twins beat the last-place Chicago White Sox 6-3 on Wednesday night. Larnach hit a solo shot in the sixth, his second blast in two games, to make it 4-3.

In the second inning, the bases were loaded with two outs following a hit, a hit batter and a walk. White Sox starter Bryse Wilson escaped again when he struck out Buxton on a called third strike, painting the outside corner of the plate with a sinker.

Had he not caught the ball, the runners on second and third would have scored, tying the game. Instead, his game-saving catch meant the Twins beat the White Sox 4-2 in the series opener on Tuesday night at Target Field. On the mound, Duran raised his arms and started excitedly jumping up and down.
