TWINS UPDATE
The Twins begin a nine-game homestand in which they will play host to the Orioles, White Sox and Red Sox. … The Twins took two of three from the Orioles in Baltimore during both teams' second series of the season. … Twins manager Ron Gardenhire gave Ryan Pressly the game ball Wednesday after the Rule 5 draft pick pitched four shutout innings in relief for his first major league victory. … Shortstop Pedro Florimon injured his right hamstring trying to beat out a bunt in the seventh inning Thursday. Florimon said he is going to be OK but wasn't sure how much he would test the injury Friday. … Gardenhire loves Oswaldo Arcia's swing, but he also liked that Arcia recently has tried to make adjustments with two strikes on him. … The Twins are expecting fairly good crowds this weekend, with 30,000-plus a possibility for each game.
