NOTES: The White Sox turned five double plays. ... Justin Morneau should rejoin the Twins on Tuesday after being with his wife when she gave birth Saturday. ....Twins 3B Trevor Plouffe, who hurt his right thumb Friday, was out of the lineup again. .... White Sox GM Ken Williams said his team is still in good position despite the tough road trip to begin the second half. "A lot of people didn't think we would be in this position right now and if we just kind of look at it from that standpoint, we're in a nice spot as we head into August here, whether it's a game and a half up or a game and a half back," he said. "Ultimately you've got to close it out anyway. Is it nice to be in first place and chased? Absolutely. But it's our time to do a little chasing right now." ... The announced crowd of 37,788 was Chicago's second sellout of the season. ... Floyd has won four of his last five starts overall. He is now 6-11 in his career against the Twins.
