Go Rangers!
+1We comin , Houston Astros.
Twins first playoff win in 19 years.
Twins first playoff series win in 22 years.
It's been a dry patch, but this team has potential.
1987 and 1991 are whispering to all Minnesota Twins fans....If you build it...they will win..
Longtime Twins fan here. I attended World Series Game 2 in 1987 and Game 7 in 1991(!). Also Game 3 of the 1969 ALCS.
Yes, this team has potential but I'm not seeing the parallels to 1987 and 1991. This team relies far too much on the home run and rarely (never?) manufactures runs. That's Dr. Baldelli's managing style. Sit back and let the boys hit HRs.
Houston's pitching staff is not the same as the pitiful staffs of the Twins AL Central rival White Sox, Tigers, and Royals. I hope the Twins can do it, but I'm not feeling it this time around.
Nice. I was at Game 6 in 1991. The Kirby HR game.
Houston is beatable this year, but playoff baseball is always another level.
Every single out is hard. Especially in the 6th inning and later.
A Twins vs Diamonbacks World Series would be pretty cool.
I hadn't heard that this season but it sounds like Mattress Mack is at it again.The Astros are a veteran seasoned team . They will fight claw and then fight and claw some more . Besides you still have a chance to get 3000.00 free furniture if the Astros win it all .

Mattress Mack is a good man , we need more like him.

Yes he is. I bought some furniture from him ~30 years ago back in the day when we lived in Houston. He was in the store that day and we actually got to talk to him a good bit. He's just a regular down to earth guy... A very rich down to earth regular guy.How true!
He is there Every day . A friend of ours and his wife both worked for him .I couldn’t understand my friends would go to work even when they weren’t scheduled. But he asked me , have you ever been to a SB , WS or a paid trip to Hawaii . No, no .no. He said Mack takes his employees everywhere he can . Treats them good.
One of my friends bought a $5,000 mattress from him during one of the promotions and the Astros won. All he had to do was pay the sales tax on it which was deducted from the check Mack sent him.
Maybe that is the scam... you should get ALL the money back... that is over $400 in his pocket...
ETA... yes, he is a good man and helps out a LOT of people...
The sales tax goes to the state coffers, not Mack's!
