In brief: Twins’ Phil Hughes forgoes bonus worth $500K

Baseball: Minnesota Twins right-hander Phil Hughes turned down a chance to pitch again this weekend, even though one more out would have earned him a $500,000 bonus.

Hughes’ half-million-dollar bonus kicks in if he reaches 210 innings this year, but he is set to finish with 209 2/3 after a rain delay forced him out of his final scheduled start Wednesday.

Manager Ron Gardenhire said the Twins were prepared to let Hughes pitch again, but Hughes says he didn’t feel it was right to make a token appearance just for that purpose.
