Rain interrupted the Twins-Brewers game twice on Tuesday night at Target Field before Milwaukee splashed to a 6-3 victory.

There will be no such issues today at a bright and sunny ballpark as the teams finish the two-game series at 12:10 p.m. It will be televised free on YouTube TV.

Before the game, the Twins sent Josh Winder, who took the loss on Tuesday, to St. Paul and reinstated reliever Joe Smith. Smith missed 18 games because of upper trap tightness.

Righthander Joe Ryan (6-3, 3.09 ERA) will try to salvage a split for the Twins against Brewers lefthander Aaron Ashby (2-6, 4.52).

Twins infielder Luis Arraez, leading the AL in hitting, gets today off.
