KNOW THIS
Wolves first-round draft pick Justin Patton had several family members with him at his introductory news conference Tuesday, including his twin brother Kendall. When talking about Kendall, who is several inches shorter than Justin at 6-7 but still claims to be the better basketball player of the two, Patton said that very well might be true, "but he's not playing for the Timberwolves."

Adalberto Mejia has pitched more than five innings in only two of his 10 starts this season. The Twins might like to get a little more from him against the Red Sox (6 p.m., FSN).
