CHICAGO -- Just when the White Sox thought they had started to turn the corner, Jose Quintana got back on the mound and the lineup was mostly silent once again. Cheap Bert Blyleven Jersey .Quintana served up a pair of homers by Brian Dozier and Chicago had just six hits in a 4-0 loss to the last-place Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night.The White Sox had won two straight series after a 10-26 stretch, but it was shut down by Kyle Gibson (1-5) and two relievers. They have scored a total of 10 runs in Quintanas eight losses this year.Yeah, you got to pick it up in your division, manager Robin Ventura said. But any time we got something going, it got snuffed out.Dozier homered in his third straight game and extended his hitting streak to 10 games as the Twins beat the White Sox for first time in seven tries. He has hit more home runs (11) against them and the Cleveland Indians than any other team.Gibson pitched seven innings of five-hit ball for his first victory of the season, improving to 5-1 with a 1.80 ERA in eight career starts against the White Sox.Its contagious, Dozier said.

It has been going on for two or three years. Maybe we try a little harder. Im not saying pressing like `We got to, we got to. But maybe we go after it more (aggressively) rather than just see pitches.Gibson (1-5) struck out seven and walked one in his best performance since coming off the disabled list this month.Ryan Pressly and Brandon Kintzler each got three outs to finish the six-hitter for Minnesotas first shutout of the season. The Twins won for the fifth time in eight games.Anytime we seemed to get something going against Gibson, he just started going soft and using your aggressiveness against you, Ventura said.Frazier went 0 for 4 and struck out twice, lowering his average to .198, and Melky Cabrera was 0 for 3 before leaving with a sore left wrist after six innings.Rookie Tim Anderson had two hits for the White Sox.MORNEAU CLOSERRecent White Sox signing Justin Morneau (elbow surgery) said he feels more like a baseball player as he takes daily batting practice.
