Rochester Red Wings News Release


Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN - The Minnesota Twins announced today that they will recall left-handed pitcher Brian Duensing from Triple-A Rochester prior to tomorrow night's game vs. the Detroit Tigers at the Metrodome. Duensing, who made the Twins Opening Day roster, was 4-6 with a 4.66 ERA (75.1 ip, 39 er) in 13 starts for the Red Wings. The 26-year-old made his Major League debut with the Twins on April 10 at Chicago, where he pitched 3.0 innings allowing two runs on two hits in his only appearance, before being optioned to Rochester on April 13. Duensing was drafted by the Twins in the third round of the 2005 First-Year Player draft out of the University of Nebraska.

To make room for Duensing on the 25-man roster, the Twins have assigned left-handed pitcher Sean Henn outright to Triple-A Rochester. Henn, who signed as a Minor League free agent this offseason, made 14 relief appearances for the Twins.
