Hamilton, Moreland lead Rangers over White Sox

CHICAGO - The Minnesota Twins outplayed the New York Yankees from start to finish, building a big lead and breezing to a decisively satisfying victory.

No, this wasn't one of those crisp October evenings with a playoff series at stake. Faded from contention this season, the fourth-place Twins probably won't be able to use this performance as momentum for any achievement that matters.

But for one night, at least, this was a sweet success.
