Milone turns a corner in dominant outing vs. Sox

MINNEAPOLIS -- Since coming off the 15-day disabled list on Aug. 16, Twins left-hander Tommy Milone has had trouble going deep into games, but he reversed that trend Wednesday night.

In his previous three starts since missing 14 games with a left elbow strain, Milone couldn't get past 5 1/3 innings, but was much better against the White Sox. He scattered three hits over seven scoreless innings with seven strikeouts in one of his best starts of the year to lead the Twins to a 3-0 win at Target Field.

It was the first time Milone had gone seven innings since July 8, as he hadn't even reached the six-inning mark since July 31.
