CHICAGO — If not for Luis Arraez on what was to be the final out of the game, the Twins would have suffered their 10th time being no-hit in Twins-Senators history.
The batting title leader hit a line drive to right field with two outs in the top of the ninth to hold White Sox starter Dylan Cease to a one-hitter. Cease then struck out Kyle Garlick to solidify his team's 13-0 victory.
If the no hitter had held, it would have been the first the Twins experienced since the Angels' Jered Weaver did so against them on May 3, 2012. It would have been Cease's first no-hitter and the third in 2022 so far. The Mets and Astros threw combined no hitters in April and June, while Reid Detmers accomplished his solo effort with a 12-0 result against Tampa Bay back on May 10.
