CHICAGO -- Twins center fielder Byron Buxton continues to hit without any issues as he works toward a return from a hairline fracture of his left big toe, but he took a break from running on Saturday and Sunday after testing it out on Friday.
Buxton took a normal round of batting practice with his teammates on Saturday and hit in the cages before Sunday's game. He's expected to try running again once the club gets to St. Louis for the two-game series against the Cardinals beginning Monday.
"I think everyone's looking forward to the day when you see his name back in the lineup," Twins manager Paul Molitor said.
