NEW YORK -- The Twins recalled pitcher Tyler Duffey from Class AAA Rochester (N.Y.) on Tuesday after sending Alan Busenitz down after Monday's 14-1 loss to the Yankees.
The 27-year-old Duffey made four relief appearances in Rochester, striking out 14 and walking one in 11 innings. He gave up two runs, neither of them earned.
