Lewis joined the Twins for the start of a three-game series at Miami. He hurt his left hamstring while running out a grounder in the ninth inning of a game on June 13, a less severe strain than the one he suffered late in spring training. That injury sidelined him for seven weeks, costing him the first 35 games of the season.

Twins infielder Royce Lewis, out since June 14 due to a strained left hamstring. was reinstated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. The club had designated infielder Jonah Bride for assignment following Sunday’s 3-0 loss to the Tigers.

The Twins could have used the potential right-handed thump from Lewis against a dominant Tarik Skubal in Sunday's loss to the Tigers.
