The Minnesota Twins didn’t have a lot to be happy about in their loss to the Chicago White Sox on Saturday night but Luis Arraez provided a silver lining, breaking up Dylan Cease’s no-hit bid with two outs in the ninth.
Twins fans may have considered Arraez a hero for saving a little bit of embarrassment in a 13-0 loss but when Arraez stepped into the box to lead off Sunday’s game, he was greeted with a chorus of boos.
Luis Arráez gets booed in his first trip to the plate with a gentleman in the stands yelling "You suck!" at him, which seems like an odd choice of words toward the guy who got the hit off the guy nobody else could hit

White Sox fans seemed very upset considering their team won in a landslide on Saturday night but it didn’t stop them from pouring out their venom toward the American League batting leader on social media.

The White Sox were able to win the weekend series, but the Twins may have gotten the last laugh, earning a victory on Sunday afternoon and giving themselves an opportunity to move into first place of the American League Central.
