MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Carlos Rodón (7-3) allowed one run on seven hits, and the Chicago White Sox took advantage of sloppy play by the Minnesota Twins to win 4-1 in Minnesota on a rainy Tuesday night. Catcher Zack Collins, making the start after Yasmani Grandal went on the injured list earlier in the day with a torn tendon in his left knee, had a two-run single in the second inning after two walks and two errors by the Twins. Minnesota starter José Berríos (7-3) allowed two runs – one earned – on just one hit with 10 strikeouts.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Roy Marble is among 10 former Iowa athletes who will be inducted into the school’s athletic hall of fame. The basketball star of the 1980s led the Hawkeyes to their only 30-win season and to the Sweet 16. Marble died in 2015. His family voiced their disappointment when Iowa retired Luka Garza’s No. 55 jersey number in March because Marble had not received the same honor. Garza broke Marble’s 32-year-old career scoring record and was the Associated Press national player of the year. Athletic director Gary Barta publicly apologized to Marble’s family.
