Boyd (1-2) delivered easily his best start of the season Monday, shutting out the Twins over six innings. He allowed three hits, walked one and struck out seven in the win.
Boyd's seven strikeouts matched a season high. The 25-year-old has allowed just one run in 11 innings of work this month, striking out 13 compared to three walks. Boyd will try to keep this strong run going when he takes the mound against the White Sox on Saturday.
