Twins and the Three Amigos

Tonight it is the Twins vs. Indians and besides happy hour and hanging out with two of my gal pals, I definitely have baseball on the brain.  The Twins have a shot to clinch the AL Central Division Championship if they win tonight and the White Sox lose.  Magic number is 2.  If the stars align, they will be the first team in baseball to clinch this year.  This game starts out like many.  A few hits by Span, Punto is back in the lineup and actually hits a double and a Jim Thome home run. Scott Baker looks his usual self, giving up 4 hits and can only last 5 innings.  Our bullpen comes in and Mijares gives up another 4 hits and is pulled before the end of the 6th.  Rauch, Perkins and Capps finish out the night and the Twins score 4 in the 8th inning.  By the end of the game, the As are leading the Sox and it looks promising that tonight will be the night... and so it was.  I wasn't like many fans that stayed at the park to see if the title was ours, but had to watch it on TV before heading to bed.  Twins win 6-4 and our 6th ALC Championship in the last 9 years is ours.  Could this really be the year that the post season is more of a fairy tale and less of a nightmare?  In a few more weeks, we will find out.
