White Sox 4, Twins 2: Adam Dunn and Dayan Viciedo homered and Tyler Flowers drove in the go-ahead run as visiting Chicago evened the series at one game apiece.
Jake Peavy (5-1) continued his mastery of Minnesota, giving up two runs on five hits in seven innings to improve to 5-1 at Target Field and 7-3 overall against the Twins.
Jesse Crain pitched a scoreless eighth before Addison Reed worked around a two-out single in the ninth for his 12th save.
Kevin Correia (4-3) absorbed his first home loss, allowing four runs on nine hits in seven-plus innings, including back-to-back doubles by Dewayne Wise and Flowers in the eighth that put the White Sox ahead 3-2. Flowers came in to score on Alexei Ramirez's single off Casey Fien.
Dunn and Viciedo went back-to-back in the second inning - with Viciedo reaching the third deck in left field - to stake Peavy to a 2-0 lead, but the Twins got one back in the fifth on Oswaldo Arcia's RBI single and tied it in the seventh on Trevor Plouffe's two-out run-scoring single.
