Miguel Vargas' batting average fell to .139 through his first 22 games heading into the Twins series. But he recently made an adjustment that the White Sox hope helps to spark the offense. Vargas' stance looks a bit different now, holding his hands higher and almost in line with his chin. He's also trying to be more aggressive against fastballs.

The Twins will go for a three-game sweep when they face the Chicago White Sox on Thursday afternoon in Minneapolis. Minnesota is aiming for its first three-game winning streak of the season, immediately after dropping three games in a row against the Atlanta Braves.
