News
Twins starter Vance Worley, who allowed five runs his last time out, turned in a solid performance but did not manage to factor into the decision Friday night against the Red Sox.

Worley, who made his ninth start of the season, surrendered a run-scoring single to David Ortiz in the opening frame for his only damage of the night. He was charged with an unearned run and six hits over six innings of work. He walked three and struck out one in a 3-2 defeat in extras.

Worley saw his ERA improve from 7.15 to 6.20 after Friday's performance. He is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday at Atlanta. He went 0-1 with a 6.52 ERA in two starts against the Braves last season.

News
Twins starter Kevin Correia wasn't at his best Monday in Atlanta. Julio Teheran was for the Braves.

It translated into a loss for Correia, who fell to .500 at 4-4 on the year. Correia gave up five earned runs on eight hits and a walk over just four innings without striking out a batter.

He gave up a three-run homer to Dan Uggla in the first inning and the Twins didn't back him with much offensive support. He threw 75 pitches and his ERA is at 3.90.

Correia has lost consecutive starts with eight runs allowed over 11 innings. He's given up at least three runs in four straight starts. His next start comes Saturday at Detroit.
