"After a delay of over two hours, Taj Bradley took the mound for the Twins and had himself a decent start when it was all said and done. Bradley's stuff was down a bit from his last start when he was regularly hitting 99 MPH with his fastball, but he battled through some tough at-bats and gave Minnesota five solid innings."
"The Twins bats fought back in the fourth, plating five runs of their own thanks to some timely hitting. Walks to Matt Wallner and Austin Martin put two on with two out, but the Twins scraped together four straight two-out hits to put them up 5-3. The go-ahead hit came off the bat of Mickey Gasper, who pinch hit for Ryan Jeffers after he had to leave the game with a head injury."
"With little Joey Pohlad sending their best bullpen arms elsewhere, the Twins were left with scraps to piece together the game after Bradley left. Travis Adams was first up and threw a great sixth inning with his stuff playing up in a shorter role. Adams came back out for the seventh and was not nearly as sharp, allowing three straight batters to reach with a Teel three-run homer to top it off and bring the score even at 7 a piece."
After a two-hour delay, Taj Bradley started for the Twins and delivered five solid innings despite reduced velocity. The White Sox built a 3-0 lead in the third on hits by Edgar Quero, Kyle Teel, and Curtis Mead. Minnesota answered with a five-run fourth fueled by walks and four consecutive two-out hits, highlighted by a pinch-hit go-ahead single from Mickey Gasper after Ryan Jeffers left with a head injury. The teams traded runs in the fifth, including a Matt Wallner homer. After Bradley exited, limited bullpen depth led to late damage, including a Teel three-run homer that tied the game.
