MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins reinstated second baseman Jorge Polanco from the 10-day injured list. That brought their regular lineup nearly back to full strength. That lasted all of four innings when designated hitter Byron Buxton was hit by a pitch in the ribs. Shortstop Carlos Correa later suffered an aggravation of the plantar fasciitis in his left foot. Right fielder Max Kepler was also pulled with a migraine headache. Polanco missed 11 games with a strained left hamstring. He missed the first 19 games while recovering from inflammation in his left knee.
