SAN FRANCISCO — Minnesota Twins left-hander Nik Turley will make his major league debut opposed by one of the organizations that wouldn’t afford him that opportunity when he takes the mound against the San Francisco Giants in the finale of a three-game interleague series Sunday.
The Twins will be seeking their fourth road sweep of the season when they end their 10-game Western swing. They’ve already clinched a winning record on the trip with six wins in their first nine games.
Saturday’s win was Minnesota’s 20th of the season on the road. Only three other teams in the majors reached the mark before the American League Central leaders.
