Banged-up Twins visit Rangers | |
The Minnesota Twins head into the weekend riding high after taking consecutive series from Cleveland and Boston but could be shorthanded Friday night when they open a three-game set with the Texas Rangers at Target Field. Eduardo Escobar left in the fourth inning of Minnesota's 9-2 loss to the Red Sox Thursday after he took a Rick Porcello fastball to the right elbow. The AL leader with 32 doubles this season, Escobar has been red-hot this month, batting .386 with an .800 slugging percentage in 70 June at-bats. MORE | |
