MINNEAPOLIS -- Start by quality start, Jake Peavy is putting the shoulder problems that once threatened to derail his career further and further behind him. Adam Dunn and Dayan Viciedo hit consecutive homers to back another strong start from Peavy and lead the Chicago White Sox to a 4-2 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night. Peavy (5-1) gave up two runs and five hits with six strikeouts in seven innings and Tyler Flowers single in the eighth scored the go-ahead run for the White Sox. Addison Reed picked up his 12th save. "I think hes got a little more velocity," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "Hes further removed from surgery. Hes just stronger. He has more belief as far as in his mind he doesnt have any hesitation of letting it go. I think last year he might have held back a little bit. But this year hes pitching free." Peavy was one of the best pitchers in the game from 2004-08, winning a Cy Young Award and pitching in two All-Star games for the San Diego Padres in that span. But he had right shoulder surgery in 2010, and its been a long, slow climb back. Now Peavy is 4-0 with a 2.10 ERA in his past five starts and looking more and more like the ace he was in San Diego. "You cant say enough about the way that guy goes out there and competes and demands perfection out of himself," said Flowers, who went 2 for 4 with a double. "Our other pitchers are trying to do what he does." Kevin Correia (4-3) gave up four runs and nine hits with two strikeouts in seven innings and Joe Mauer extended his hitting streak to 13 games for the Twins. Justin Morneau added a single and a double to increase his hitting streak to 10 games. Dunn, who entered the game hitting a league-worst .133, and Viciedo got the Sox off to a roaring start with nearly 1,000 feet of home runs in the second inning. One night after watching Aaron Hicks rob a home run in centre field, Dunn put a little extra on a pitch that soared an estimated 413 feet into the bullpen. Viciedo followed three pitches later with a blast that landed in the first row of the third deck in left field, some 424 feet from home plate for a 2-0 lead, but the fun was just beginning. Proponents of expanded replay picked up some more fodder in this game and Peavy may be at the front of the line now. The Twins caught their first break in the fifth when home plate umpire Jordan Baker missed Flowers initial tag of Morneau at home plate. When Morneau saw that no call was made initially, he sneaked his arm into home plate and was ruled safe. Peavy and Ventura argued vehemently to no avail, and the Twins were on the board. "He said he didnt see it," Peavy said. "I saw it pretty clearly from farther away both times. Just, you know, I understand they are going to miss some. But it cost runs, cost the tying run coming to the plate there." First base umpire Dan Bellino missed another call in the seventh when Dunn beat Brian Doziers throw to first by a full step but was ruled out anyway. Ventura again came out to argue briefly before heading back to the dugout. Trevor Plouffes single in the seventh scored Josh Willingham to tie the game 2-2, and suddenly Bakers call at home loomed very large. "I think in the end to do all that stuff, they just want to get it right," Ventura said. "I dont know if the answer is to go more (replays), but in the end you just want it to be right." But Peavy posted his fifth straight quality start -- he is 4-0 with a 2.10 ERA during the streak -- and Flowers and Alexei Ramirez delivered RBI singles in the eighth inning to put Chicago back on top. The Sox were even able to overcome an error charged to Dunn at first base when a throw from Ramirez broke the webbing of his glove and popped out. "Were getting creative; gloves breaking. So, you just scratch your head," said Ventura, who conducted a 45-minute defensive workout before the game after seeing eight errors in the past five games. "But its a focal point. Its important and its going to stay important. I dont know if were going to come out here at 8:30 tomorrow, but I was thinking about it."

Darcy Kuemper got the start with Devan Dubnyk given the night off and finished with 30 saves.Baertschi, who has struggled to rediscover his scoring touch that emerged toward the end of last season, tipped Stechers point shot to cap a crazy third period that saw the teams combine for five goals.Tied 2-2 through two periods, Eriksson gave Vancouver its first lead 1:09 into the third with his sixth of the season when he finished off a scramble after the Wild failed to clear the puck from their zone.Baertschi, just back in the lineup after missing the last two with a foot injury, then tipped a shot past Kuemper for his third at 2:08 to give the Canucks a two-goal edge.But the Wild struck right back when Zucker blocked Erik Gudbransons point shot and moved in alone on Miller before beating the Vancouver goalie with a nice backhand deke at 3:20 for his third.Kuemper then made a great stop on Eriksson off a feed from Markus Granlund just over a minute later to keep the Wild within one.Suter rewarded his goalie by scoring his fifth on a point shot that went in off Gudbranson, who was attempting to block the shot with his leg, with 5:49 left in regulation.Trailing 2-0 midway through the second with just 10 shots on the night, the Canucks came to life on back-to-back power plays to tie it.

Luca Sbisa, one of the veteran members of the current corps at age 26, misplayed a puck at the Vancouver blue line to allow Niederreiter to swoop in on Miller before Pominville was buried the rebound for his fourth into an open net at 5:07.The Canucks thought they had tied it with 5:18 left in the period when Henrik Sedin scored what looked to be his sixth, but the call on the ice was overturned after Minnesota challenged that Sutter had interfered with Kuemper.Pominville then made it 2-0 with his second of the game and fifth of the season on a shot off the rush at 3:24 of the second that beat Miller under the blocker.Game notesEdler is expected to be out four to six weeks. ...
