The Boston Red Sox arrived in Minnesota early on Monday morning to begin their series with the Twins later that day. They were a little shaken up — literally.
The Red Sox had a turbulent flight to the Twin Cities due to severe weather in the Midwest. Boston's Sunday evening charter made a brief pit stop in Detroit before it took off for Minnesota, into the nasty weather again. They didn't land until 1 a.m. Eastern time, and some of the players were battered by motion sickness. According to Chris Cotillo of MassLive, Garrett Whitlock received IV fluids before the game, and still was not ready to pitch on Monday.
