The Tigers take game one in the ALCS.

After surprisingly winning the AL Central and getting to stay home and face the A’s, the Twins were nearly everybody’s favorite to win their opening-round series. As they say, that’s why they play the games.

While everybody was expecting Johan Santana to pitch the Twins right past the A’s, Barry Zito showed that he knows a thing or two about pitching.

Rather than traveling to take on the mighty Yankees, the Twins are happy to be staying at home and playing the A’s in a series that starts today.
