MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Justin Morneau's (MOR'-nohz) two-out RBI double in the seventh inning lifted Minnesota past the visiting Chicago White Sox 4-3. After working the count to 3 and 2, the Twins first baseman belted a high pitch from Boone Logan to deep left-center, driving in Carlos Gomez and hanging a loss on reliever Ehren Wasserman, who drops to 0-and-1. Morneau is batting .481 with runners in scoring position while collecting 18 RBIs in 27 at-bats in that situation. Gomez went 3-for-4 and scored twice. Nick Blackburn lasted seven innings and allowed only three runs in giving the Twins consecutive victories by starting pitchers for the first time in 18 days. He improves to 2-and-1.
