Miscellany: Minnesota is coming off a three-game sweep of the Angels, in which it outscored Los Angeles, 23-12. . . An already thin bullpen got even thinner yesterday when the Twins placed Jesse Crain on the 15-day disabled list with shoulder soreness . . . With All-Star catcher Joe Mauer on the DL, the Twins have allowed 100 percent of base stealers to succeed (16 of 16).
