In an exciting series of Major League Baseball games, the Minnesota Twins secured their eighth consecutive victory by defeating the Chicago White Sox 6-5. The game was closely contested, with the Twins breaking a tie in the ninth inning through a sacrifice fly by Max Kepler that allowed Byron Buxton to score the go-ahead run. This win halted the White Sox's winning streak at three games. Meanwhile, in another notable game, the Atlanta Braves and Seattle Mariners were engaged in a rare double no-hitter through six innings, with Braves' pitcher Max Fried and Mariners' Bryce Miller delivering outstanding performances. Fried recorded six no-hit innings, contributing to the Braves' ongoing combined no-hitter.
