Twins win AL Central in extra innings of extra game

This text is replaced by the Flash movie. TOM POWERS After 163 games, the final of which lasted a grueling 12 innings Tuesday night, the Minnesota Twins have a date with the Evil Empire: the New York Yankees and their $200 million payroll.

Go Twins!

[Rockin John]

Go to New Yawk and sweep those Yankees!

[MIke]

Just want to say congrats to the Twins!! Heck of a game last night, good luck against the Yanks. For the record I am a Red Sox fan, and a fan of the game.

[Kellie]

Good Job Twinkies!!!!

[Mike the Vike]

I have to admit I'm not a big fan of baseball, but I really enjoyed last nights game. Go twins! Good luck in the playoffs.

[WAYTOGO]

Awesome! Beat those Yanks! and thanks FOX9 News for the Sweet Music interview!!!

[Go Green]

The twins played an awesome game last night, reminds me of the Twins I watched back in 1991! It's looking good for another World Series win. Congrats Twins.

One of the most exciting games I ever seen, my throat is sore today from all the screaming!

[jct]

Lots of smiling faces today!!

The world wants the Twins to beat NY...except NY.

[Dont Care]

A fantastic storytale about the year the Twins won the division on the last day..in fact the extra day. Unfortunately they will fly out to New York and be destroyed as they have every series this against real teams who are contenders. The only series they beat a contender was Detroit who were the bottom of the contender pile. It will be embarrassing.

[yep]

That was the most STRESSFUL game I have ever had to watch .. but it was well worth it! Go Twins!

Congratulations to the Twins. Last night was a great ballgame, and had me on the edge of my seat for hours. As sad as it is for us Tiger fans to see the season end, the Twins deserved to have that final game after going 16-4, and were victorious. The Tigers had control of thier destiny, and blew it down the stretch.
So, we will be rooting for the Twins, especially against the stinkin' Yankees.
Go Twins.
Yankees Suck!

[Tommy D]

The Yankees farm team could beat the Twins!

Well, aren't you the positive POS? Why don't you pucker up and kiss all the true Twins fans collective twin backsides?

Go Twins!

This makes a lot of sense. If you "Dont Care" why did you post on the subject? And, your pathetic little opinion really doesn't matter to anyone but you anyway. Not a lot of people thought we'd be here when we were 7 games back in September...but here we are. We're playing NY. You are just playing with yourself.

Hopefully the Yankees are thinking the same way. The Twins can steamroll them while the Yanks look ahead to the ALCS!
