Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joined host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, which included the Twins extending the White Sox misery. After Minnesota swept Chicago at Target Field, the White Sox have now lost 20 consecutive games and have a season record of 27-87. With help from their inept AL Central foes, the Twins moved within 4.5 games of division-leading Cleveland with a showdown looming soon.

Plus Reusse and Rand talked about the Olympics and a young Minnesotan rising up the ranks of the auto racing world, while Reusse got to tell some fun stories along the way.
